With a butterscotch flavor, these tasty bars have always been welcomed with open arms by my family. Since they're simple to make, kids can have fun pitching in.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1-1/2 cups flaked coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, salt and baking powder; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in coconut and pecans (batter will be thick).
2. Spread into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Cut into bars. Yield: 4 dozen.
