Pear Custard Bars image

I found this recipe that I hadn't made in awhile that I got from Taste of Home several years ago. These are so good. I usually double the recipe. I hope you enjoy them. The photo is from Taste of Home.

These bars were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would add more custard next time.

I'm not a big fan of pears, but these bars were surprisingly good. The custard was creamy and the pears added a nice sweetness.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
