She said aer the first time she made them, they were so popular she doubled the recipe every time. Grandparents: this is a fun recipe to make with your grandkids. Our daughter was about 10 years old when she had it published in our weekly newspaper, and boy, was she proud! I heard someone here made it for Halloween. I had this coleslaw at Wood Ranch BBQ when I went to lunch with friends. It's in the Dos Lagos area off the 15 freeway. I was able to find the recipe online and I'm sharing it with you. It's much better than the usual coleslaw I've had in the past. Lemon Brownies By Joyce Hansen
