"Generations of New Orleanians "and Cajuns" have grown up with Elmer's Gold Brick, Heavenly Hash and Pecan Eggs as an essential part of their Easter holiday. Gold Brick was the first candy bar to sell for a dime, and it still sold."
Per the editor - Gold Brick Candy is very popular around Easter time; sometimes though all Gold Bricks candy sell out as I have often found out. If you can not locate any and you have an inkling for one, this recipe will satisfy your cravings and sweet tooth.
