This recipe comes from our friend Cheryl who is an Elementary School Principal here in Ogden. Tina's Christian nearly flipped because he loves these lunchroom treats. We have made them and they are yummy. We doubled the recipe and made them in a 18" x 12" dripper pan. The amounts are a bit odd, as they are used to making enough for a school for 600 children. Have fun and welcome back to school. The recipe originally comes from the Weber School district.
