Nanaimo bars come from the town of Nanaimo, on Victoria Island, off the coast from Vancouver. They're very popular in the west coast of the country, whereas people on the East coast tend to prefer Butter tarts (see my profile for a recipe for those 😉) I hope people from all of the east coasts of the world can enjoy this delicious dessert! If you want thicker Nanaimo bars, you can double the recipe, but use the same size pan. Also, I mention using a double boiler in this recipe. If you don't have a double boiler you can just place a metal or ceramic bowl on top of a pot of simmering water (what I did).
