A Christmas Treat

Chocolate Cherry Bars
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cup graham crackers crumbs
14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
12-oz. pkg. milk chocolate chips
10-oz. jar maraschino cherries,drained & chopped
   
Spread the melted butter evenly in a 13 x 9 inch baking pan.  Stir in the graham cracker crumbs.  Press down to form a crust.  Pour the condensed milk over the top.  Sprinkle with the chocolate chips and the chopped cherries.  Bake at 350 F for 25 minutes.  Cool completely.  Slice into bars.  Makes about 2 dozen bars
This is a very good treat for gifting in a tissue lined container.  They are beautiful and taste wonderful as well.  I plan to take some to my sweet little neighbors.  Thay are simple and easy to make and look SO time consuming, anyone would think you had slaved for hours on them!!
Happy holidays to all and remember ...
be sweet!!!  XXXOOOXXOOX
