Easy Chess Squares: A Family Favorite

Hey, y'all!  So tonight I'm sharing a delicious, simple recipe that's very near and dear to my heart.  My grandma, as well as aunts and cousins, have always enjoyed making Chess Squares.  If you haven't had them, girl, you are missing out.  We have made chess squares for pretty much every holiday for years.  I've also made them for football tailgating, and just as sweet gifts to surprise friends.

The recipe is super easy, so let's get started, shall we?
