This recipe was in a church recipe book. I often make this when I have something else in the oven since it doesn't take up too much room or time.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup white sugar
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1 cup brown sugar
Directions:
1. Cream shortening (I use butter), add sugar, beaten egg yolks and mix well.
2. Add flour, baking powder, salt (recipe asks for a pinch, but Zaar will not let me put that in) and vanilla.
3. Spread in an 8 square greased pan.
4. Beat egg whites until stiff, then add brown sugar and spread over top.
5. Heat oven to 350F and bake for 20-30 minutes.
