    List of Ingredients




    3/4 cup butter
    3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1 egg yolk
    1½ cups all-purpose flour
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
    (1¼ cups)
    2 Tbsp. butter
    2 tsp. vanilla
    1 12-oz. pkg. semisweet chocolate
    pieces (2 cups)
    1 cup almond brickle pieces or toasted
    chopped pecans

    Recipe



    Grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan. In a large mixing bowl beat the 3/4 cup butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium to high speed until combined. Add egg yolk; beat well. Stir in flour and salt; mix well. With floured hands, press dough into prepared pan. Bake in a 350° oven about 20 minutes or until light brown. Transfer pan to a wire rack.

    For filling, in a heavy medium saucepan heat condensed milk and the
    2 tablespoons butter over medium heat until bubbly, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 5 minutes more. (Mixture will thicken and become smooth.) Stir in vanilla. Spread filling over baked layer. Bake in a 350° oven 12 to 15 minutes more or until top layer is golden.

    Sprinkle baked layers evenly with chocolate pieces. Bake 1 to 2 minutes more or until pieces are shiny and melted. Remove from oven; transfer to a wire rack. Immediately spread chocolate evenly over baked layer. Sprinkle with brickle pieces. Let cool; cover and chill until chocolate sets. Cut into squares. Store, covered, in refrigerator. Makes about 24 bars.
