They’re easy to prepare and so delicious! 1/3 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 egg…
Pearson’s Nut Goodie has been my favorite candy bar for as long as I can remember. Well, that’s not entirely true. Pearson’s used to offer a candy bar called the Seven Up Bar that was even better, but they stopped making them. I can’t imagine why. It was a bar with seven different cream filling…
