    Recipe Introduction


    These chewy squares ooze brown sugary butterscotch. They becrumb the lips and besmear the chin, like home-baked goodies should.

    List of Ingredients




    BLONDIES:
    1 c Butter, melted
    2 c Light brown sugar
    3 Eggs
    2 tsp Vanilla
    2 c Flour
    1/2 tsp Salt
    1 1/2 ts Baking powder
    1 c Chopped walnuts, pecans, etc
    FROSTING:
    1/2 c Butter
    3 c Sifted confectioners sugar
    2 tsp Instant coffee, dissolved in 2 Tbl hot water

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add sugar and beat well to mix. Cool the mixture slightly, then beat in the eggs and vanilla. Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Stir it into the wet ingredients, then add the nuts. Mix well. Spread brownies in a greased 11x7x2" pan and bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes or until a light gold. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out. This is easiest if you up-end the pan over waxed paper, then turn the cake right side up. Let it finish cooling on a rack.

    To make the frosting, cream 1/2 cup butter with confectioners sugar. Beat it until light, then beat in the coffee mixture. Spread over the brownies. When frosting has set, cut in squares. Yield: 36 2" or 72 1" squares.
