I baked in an 8x8 pan, and added 1/2 cup walnuts and 1/2 cup raisins. I chose to skip the icing in this recipe and topped it with cream-cheese frosting instead. With my changes, I wouldn't call these bars -- it was a cake. But it was a DELICIOUS cake!

This was darn good! I also used a can of tomatos in place of one of the cans of soup. My husband doesn't like "chunky," so I put the tomato and onion in the food processor to make it smooth. I used one can kidney beans, one can cannellini beans, and one can black beans - very festive! I added the spices as written (minus the allspice). It was just a tiny bit spicy. Next time, I will increase the chili powder and red pepper, to give it some kick. We both loved this, and my husband even had leftovers for breakfast (blech). This recipe is going into our monthly meal rotation!

Following the advice of other reviews, I cut the salt to 1 tsp. I baked the ribs, covered, for the first two hours. Then uncovered them and basted for the last hour. They were fantastic. I'm not even a huge fan of ribs, but these were great!
