I almost returned the tagged book unread to make room for a 48-hour audiobook that came in way earlier than expected, but I decided to at least give it a go. Now I‘ve got an exciting new author to explore! While I solved the mystery many hours before Jake, I had such a great time with all the small town community stuff and the strong friendships that I couldn‘t care about the story‘s faults. I made excuses to listen more. #audiobaking
xicanti If you, too, want to make Nanaimo bars while you listen to something great, I recommend the city of Nanaimo‘s official recipe. It‘s on their website. I make it in a 9x13 pan instead of an 8x8, with the base and topping as written but the custard filling doubled. Please note, also, that you MUST use sweetened coconut. Unsweetened mucks up the base‘s texture. 1w

xicanti @BkClubCare excellent choice! 1w
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian Ha, I live in Nanaimo and I didn't know we had an official recipe! 7d
xicanti @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian I think it was near the top of the results when I searched for a recipe a few years back! It‘s a good starting point, but needed some tweaking. The official base is almost half again as thick as the custard. 6d
