Cuban Lunches

Cuban Lunches – here is a great rich and yummy snack that not only kids but everyone will love!!! I changed them up just a bit and they turned out great.

Instead of butterscotch chips, I added a bag of Skor pieces. Even better in my mind!!

This treat brings together the salty, sweet, and chocolate. You can’t go wrong with that!! They are so easy to make and great for any time of the year.

You can drop them into little cups too but I just dropped them freehand onto waxed paper. They are rich but were gobble down. Try them and ENJOY!!!

    My understanding is that the first and original Cuban Lunch chocolate bar was made by a family in Camrose, Alberta, Canada.

      There are 30gms. per ounce, there are 8 oz. in a cup. This is weight versus volume though. So I would go by weight in a package. In Canada our packages are in gms. If you are in the US they will be ounces. A quick converter is here, http://www.theunitconverter.com/grams-to-ounces-conversion/450-grams-to-ounces.html. 450 gms is almost 16 oz.

    They look so scrumptious. But why are they called Cuban Lunches? 🙂

            It used to be a candy bar years and years ago but that is all I can find, can’t even find a picture of it.
