Canada has some incredible desserts like sugar pie (tarte au sucre), beaver tails, blueberry grunt and Saskatoon berry pie. The Nanaimo bar, named after Nanaimo, British Columbia are another BIG favourite. A classic Nanaimo bar has three layers:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The creamy chocolate ganache top layer<\/li>\n
  2. The sweet, dreamy vanilla custard middle layer<\/li>\n
  3. The chocolatey, coconut graham crumb base<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The original Nanaimo Bar was actually labelled “chocolate square” in 1952’s Women\u2019s Auxiliary of the\u00a0Nanaimo Hospital Cookbook. A year later, a similar recipe appeared in Edith Adams\u2019 Cookbook and the delicious treat was officially christened the “Nanaimo Bar”. They are so synonymous with the city that they are named after that they have their own exhibit at the Nanaimo Museum<\/a>. We are sharing the official Nanaimo<\/span>-approved\u00a0Nanaimo<\/span>\u00a0Bar<\/span> with you today!<\/p>\n

    What are your favorite no-bake treats? Other than ice cream, I’m all about these no-bake Nanaimo bars, which are super simple to make and also keep very well in the fridge. They’re rich, but a tiny sliver provides the perfect sweet bite when I need a sweet pick-me-up. (Recipe will be in my book, but I have a couple Nanaimo-inspired dessert ideas I’m kicking around for the summer!) . #nobakedesserts #isolationcreation #f52grams #f52community #nanaimobars #cupcakeproject #canadianfood #bakewithlactantia #buzzfeedfood #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #lifeandthyme #bakeyourworldhappy #fbcigers #thebakefeed #saveurmag #tastingtable #foodandwine #sharemytable #cookandtell #imsomartha #mississaugacakes #fnceats #huffposttaste #bareaders #tohfoodie #thenewhealthy #makesmewhole #bombesquad #homebaked #pandemicbaking<\/a><\/p>\n
