These squares were a winning recipe entry from Country Magazine, February/March 1997. **Note: 3/23/07-after Kittencal's review I revised a couple of the ingredients per her wonderful suggestions. :-) Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup finely chopped walnuts |
2/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2/3 cup butter |
16 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 eggs |
1/4 cup whipping cream |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine flour, walnuts, brown sugar and salt; cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 2. Set half aside; press remaining crumb mixture onto the bottom of a greased 13 X 9-inch baking pan. 3. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-12 minutes, or until lightly browned. 4. In a mixing bowl, beat filling ingredients until smooth; pour over crust. 5. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. 7. Cool completely. 8. Store in the refrigerator. 9. **Cook time does not include cooling time. |
