During the marriage pre-festivities, my mother in law's good friend, Mrs. Jobeth, would always make us ooey gooey butter bars for all of our showers, dinners, etc.
Last night, we were celebrating my father in law's birthday over dinner and Mrs. Jobeth brough her chewy bars and Justin and I couldn't help but rave over her ooey gooeys and how much we missed them!
She finally cracked and told me the secret!
It is a PAULA DEEN recipe! That I could find online!
