This is a quick and easy bar cookie made with a cake mix crust. I was given a huge bottle of maple syrup on the condition that I make cookies and this is what I used it for. These are not overly sweet and a great fall cookie. Ingredients:
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package white cake mix (i used a vanilla) |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
1 egg, slightly beaten |
3/4 cup pure maple syrup |
1/4 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/2 cups walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. For the bottom layer, in a large bowl, combine cake mix, butter and egg. 3. Stir until mixture forms a thick dough. 4. Press evenly into the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. 5. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden. 6. Meanwhile, for the top layer, in a large bowl, combine syrup, sugar, eggs and vanilla. 7. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined. 8. Stir in walnuts. 9. Pour over hot bottom layer; spread to cover the entire surface. 10. Bake 22 to 25 minutes or until the top layer just starts to set. 11. Cool completely in pan. 12. Cut into bars. |
