Press down firmly in 9 x 13 inch pan and chill
Filling
1/4 - cup butter
2 - cups icing sugar
2 - tablespoons of custard powder
1/4 - can sweetened condensed milk ( sometimes a little more depending on texture )
Beat until fluffy ( may need to add a little bit of regular milk )

Icing
Melt - 3 squares semi - sweet chocolate and add

Coco,
These sound really good. I will make some over the weekend. And don't let me forget to tell how well we liked them. I know this because we love everything that is in them. I can't wait but we are having a couple over for a cook out and these will be good I wanted something simple and good. Thank you for sharing.
