This is delicious and filled the house with such a nice holiday aroma. It makes me think of the German Chriskindl fairs. I was running low on honey, so I used a mix of honey and agave nectar. I didn't have any ginger crystals on hand, so I just added an extra teaspoon of ginger. I look forward to making these again when I have the ginger crystals. It is a great, healthier dessert. For the glaze, I did 4 tablespoons of apple juice with 2 tablespoons of apple juice. The glaze never hardened but remained more sticky. While it's still delicious, wondering if maybe I can do something different next time so that the glaze hardens more...any ideas? Thank you!
Be sure to brush the glaze on while the bars are still hot. This helps cook out some of the moisture in the glaze and allow it to set and harden. ~ MaryJane
