Scotcheroos

Go Cook
I've used this Scotcheroo recipe so many times in a pinch or when I didn't feel like turning on the oven. Not too mention what a fun name for a dessert that's so easy to make. It also can be frozen for up to three months.

A 9 x 13 inch baking pan could be used if you like them not as tall.
They also freeze really well if you would like to make them ahead
