List of Ingredients




Bottom crust:
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup softened butter
1 1/3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon Clabber Girl Baking Powder

Meringue layer:
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips


Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.; Cream together light brown sugar and butter. Sift flour and baking powder and stir into creamed mixture. It will look crumbly. Press into bottom only of greased 13x9x2-inch baking pan.

Bake 8 minutes. While crust is baking, beat together sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt until very thick and lemon-colored. Fold in nuts and chips gently and spread over crust. Bake 18-20 minutes longer.

Cool and cut into 15 bars.

Storage: in cooler, covered with saran wrap.
