This is an old time South Dakota recipe. Cocoa is an optional ingredient. This recipe is made in two parts. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
3 eggs, beaten |
1 1/2 cups brown sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (optional) |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar until smooth. Stir in the 1 1/2 cups of flour. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Bake the crust for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden.
3. In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs and 1 1/2 cups brown sugar. Stir in the vanilla. Combine the 1/4 cup flour, cocoa (if desired), baking powder and salt; stir into the egg mixture. Fold in the coconut and walnuts. Pour into the pre-baked crust.
4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm. Cool and cut into squares.
