What is claimed: 1. A holder for baked goods, comprising: a first generally flat and rectangular baking pan comprising a first sheet formed with a plurality of cup-shaped recesses and having extensions at opposite ends forming first handles; a second generally flat and rectangular pan comprising a second sheet formed with a plurality of recesses and disposed in spaced relation overlying said first pan, said second sheet having legs extending toward and engaging the first sheet adjacent said handles to hold the second pan in spaced relation with the first pan, each of said legs having a flange extending outwardly from a bottom of each of said legs; a cover of generally rectangular cross-sectional shape overlying and covering said pans and having a peripheral edge for engaging the peripheral portion of said first pan around the recess therein and second handles overlying said first handles with said flange of each of said legs of the second sheet sandwiched therebetween; and a plurality of latches clamp and sandwich the first handles, second handles and said flange of each of said legs of the second sheet for securing said second pan and said cover releasably in place on said first pan, said plurality of latches being pivotably mounted on one of said first and second handles. 2. A holder as defined in claim 1 wherein said legs of said second sheet have feet thereon engaging the first sheet and overlying the first handles, said feet being secured between said first and second handles by said latches. 3. A holder as defined in claim 2 wherein said latches are channel-shaped members having top walls for overlying said second handles and bottom walls extending under the first handles. 4. A holder as defined in claim 3 wherein said handles and said latches are arcuately shaped, and said top walls of said members are recessed into said second handles. 5. A holder as defined in claim 1 wherein said second sheet is smaller than said first sheet and said cover comprises upright sidewalls and endwalls and a flat top wall and tapers from said peripheral edge toward said top wall. 6. A holder as defined in claim 5 further including a third handle mounted on said top wall. 7. A holder as defined in claim 1 wherein said cover is composed of shatter-resistant transparent material. 8. A holder as defined in claim 1 wherein said legs are flat plates that are integrally joined to said second sheet at opposite ends thereof, and said plates have flanges on the ends thereof for engaging the first sheet adjacent said first handles, said flanges overlying said first handles to be secured between the first and second handles by said latches. 9. A holder as defined in claim 8 wherein said second sheet has one leg at each end, narrower than said second sheet. 10. A holder for baked goods, comprising: a first baking pan for holding a plurality of baked goods; a second pan for holding a second plurality of baked goods, said second pan being disposed in spaced relation with said first pan and having legs engaging the first pan to hold the second pan in spaced relation with the second pan; a cover overlying and covering said pans and having a peripheral edge engaging said first pan, to protect baked goods on the pans; handles on opposite ends of the holder extending outwardly from the first pan; and latches pivotably mounted on one of said handles and the peripheral edge of the cover for holding the cover releasably on the first pan and over the second pan, wherein said legs of said second pan have flanges extending between the handles and the peripheral edge of said cover, and said latches clamp and sandwich the peripheral edge of said cover, flanges of said legs of said second pan, and the handles together. 11. A holder as defined in claim 10 wherein said handles comprise a first handle on each end of said first pan, and a second handle on each end of said cover overlying the first handle on the first pan and forming, in effect, one handle at each end of the holder. 12. A holder as defined in claim 11 wherein said legs have feet thereon disposed between said first and second handles, thereby to secure the second pan in place in the holder. 13. A holder as defined in claim 11 wherein said latches comprise members mounted on the holder for movement between latching and unlatching positions and operable to secure said first and second handles together in the latching positions. 14. A holder as defined in claim 13 wherein said latches are channel-shaped members and are pivotally mounted on one of said first and second handles, said members having top walls for overlying said second handles and bottom walls underlying said first handles, thereby to clamp the first and second handles together. 15. A holder as defined in claim 14 wherein said second handles have recesses for receiving said top walls in flush relation. 16. A holder as defined in claim 14 wherein said first and second handles and said members are arcuate in shape. 17. A holder as defined in claim 12 wherein said second pan has one leg at each end in the form of a depending plate joined to the end of the second pan above said handles, said plates being narrower than the second plate and said feet comprising flanges engaging the first plate and extending between said first and second handles. 18. A holder as defined in claim 10 wherein said cover has walls that taper away from said first pan to a top wall overlying said second pan, said cover being composed of transparent shatter-resistant material having a third handle secured thereto for toting the holder.
