Agatha L. Roth Indianapolis, Indiana Bake-Off® Contest 37, 1996 $2,000 Prize Winner Using refrigerated cookie dough as a crust was an idea that appealed to a number of contestants at the 1996 contest. With a creamy coconut pecan filling and chocolate nut icing, these wonderfully rich bars indeed are a sweet treat.
