    Durling the Korean War, I was serving in the Navy and my Sister made Congo Squares and sent them to me. They always arrived in less than a week and they were firm, moist and most of all delicious. I could never get more than one or two as I had to share them with the rest of the Sonar Gang. They were a smash it!

    I love seeing family recipes being handed on, I still use some of my mum's although I don't do a lot of baking. looks tasty

    I still have the very well used recipe that my mother, sister and I have made for at least 60 years. The recipe I have calls them "Congo Bars". Mom always made it for school functions,etc., when she was required to bring cookies. My sis and I have continued the tradition. Tonight is Christmas Eve and I will be making a batch for my own gang tomorrow morning. We (my sis and I) have found that dark brown sugar works better for us these days. Would love to hear comments from your family

    I used to add coconut and dried dates , made the cookies very rich
  • riskdoc Dec 10, 2011 @ 7:15 pm | delete
    My mother in law made these all the time for my husband. He loves them. My sweet mother in law has since passed and every Christmas my husband wants these bars. I am not the best cook but this year I'm going to make him these cookies. Thank you for sharing and Merry Christmas.

    These sound like chocolate chip bars we made at home when in a hurry. I like the "pat them down" half way through baking. They sound good!

    Congo squares sound so yummy! Brownies are a favorite at my house, so a variation like this will be so appreciated. And of course anything chocolate goes to the top of my list.

    It is great to know that other families make these wonderful morsels. My Nana made thesde when I was a child. Now I make them for my children. This receipe has been passed down many generations. P.s. we call them Congo Bars.

    I want to make Congo Squares for a very special friend who has given them to us for over 30 years around the holiday season. She's dealt with several serious health issues the last few years, and her husband's been having a difficult time with an aggressive form of cancer for several months. I just think it's time to make them both know how much we appreciate their friendship by making THEM the Congo Squares this year. Thanks for sharing your recipe and tips.

    I had never heard of "congo squares" but I will be sure to give them a try. They have a lot of the same ingredients I would use in a chocolate chip cookie but with less work. Thanks for reminding me of the good old days when families did things like bake together. It was always a tradition in our family too. I can't wait to read the rest of the Tate family recipes.
  • Toni Sep 17, 2009 @ 3:37 pm | delete
    My mom made congo squares when i was growing up. She was an awesome cook. We called them bongo congo squares. i took the recipe as i moved foward in life, making them quite often myself. Made them for a friend in the Navy one time and ended up making them for the whole troop.. they called them 'blonde brownies'... oh the memories of my childhood.
  • puzzlemaker Aug 30, 2009 @ 3:35 pm | delete
    Thanks for sharing this Joan. I will certainly make these as soon as my waistline can stand it. Sounds like I'd munch them down right after they come out of the oven. I have no will power for such good food!
  • terrygtatetexas Aug 2, 2009 @ 12:07 pm | delete
    They Sound Great!!, I will have to make them and try them out on my Tate Family. I would really like to know more about your family line. I am also interested in the Tate Family Reunion in Pendleton SC 2010. My Great Great Grand Parents were born in that area in 1810.

    Oh I loved seeing that some of you remembered eating congo squares! and no, Mike, I was not aware of the New Orleans part of this. I feel sure that is where the recipe came from. My dad's folks were from Georgia and we are all South Carolinians. Those old recipes do get passed around! Thank you for adding that story! I have always wondered about the name, Congo Squares.

    FYI: I'm a native New Orleanian and Congo Square is a famous area of the city on Rampart Street. African-American slaves would congregate and play music in Congo Square on Sundays and the music they created served as the basis for many of the rhythms and chants that are still a part of N'awlins music.Wikipedia has a good description. Apologies is y'all already knew this info.

    When I first saw this (congo) I thought New Orleans, but after reading it dawned on me - yummy foods - I can still think New Orleans; great memories. Heck, if it weren't for Mardi Gras, I wouldn't have met my wife.

    "Congo Squares" I will whip up a batch and let you know.

    What fun memories. I was telling my Sunday School Class last week about going with mom as she "spread joy" around Pendleton delivering her Congo Squares to the Post Office, the Doctors Office, the School Staff, and of course the Elderly. She did love to 'SPREAD JOY"!
