Strawberry Crunch Bars Recipe
These Strawberry Crunch Bars are to die for!
My idea for the bars was to use a strawberry pudding mix to enhance the strawberry flavor. Locally, I only found one brand of strawberry pudding. It was actually a strawberry milkshake pudding! How fun! I plan to purchase that again just to make the pudding on its own to see how yummy it is.
These Strawberry Crunch Bars are amazingly sweet. In fact, they are heavy on the sweet, so I suggest cutting these into half the size you would a brownie or piece of cake.
I hope you give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments below!
