These are one of my favorites that my mother only made at Christmas time but they are delicious anytime! Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
1 cup white sugar |
2 eggs |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
1 egg white |
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Cream together butter or margarine and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. 2. In another bowl, sift flour, salt, and baking powder together. Blend in to the creamed mixture, and then add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla to the dough. 3. Spread dough in 9 x 13 inch greased baking pan, and sprinkle chopped nuts over top. 4. In a small mixing bowl, beat egg white until stiff but not dry. Add brown sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla to the whipped egg white, and beat thoroughly. Spread meringue over the dough and nuts already in the pan. 5. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 20 to 30 minutes. Cool, and cut into bars. |
