This is a C and H sugar company's recipe from their site. This tastes like a blondie, and my combo of seeds and nuts works well! Enjoy.
Ingredients:
1 cup golden brown sugar
1/4 cup shortening ( i used 2 t crisco, 2t butter)
1 egg
1tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup pecans, chopped (did not have pecans. substituted equal amounts to make 1/2 cup of walnuts, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350*F
2. grease 8X8X2 baking pan
3. In medium bowl, beat sugar and shortening until fluffy.
4. Beat in egg and vanilla.
5. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into sugar mixture. Stir in nuts. Spread batter into well-greased pan. Bake 25 minutes.
6. Cut into 2X1 pieces. I recommend removing the bars from the baking pan soon. (under 10 mins after leaving oven). Otherwise, they get hard and crumble when removing from pan.
