Nanaimo bars are creamy, chocolatey dessert treats originating from Nanaimo, a city "so beautiful it's alright to stare". The same can be said for Nanaimo bars, layered cookies that don't need to be baked, consisting of a mixture of crushed graham crackers, coconut, and nuts acting as a base that is topped with a creamy, vanilla-buttery middle layer and finished with a layer of glistening, semi-sweet chocolate.

Their origin is shrouded in a veil of mystery, and the only thing known about them is that they originate from Nanaimo, where the locals held a contest to find the best Nanaimo bar recipe. As to who chose to crush the biscuits and top them off with creamy custard and chocolate is still unknown.

Satisfying both visually and in flavor, one ultra-sweet bar packs about 290 calories, so it is best to control yourself while eating "just one more...".
