Butterscotch Squares a la My Grandma

[sarahmichelef]

2 C brown sugar (light or dark)

1/2 c butter

2 eggs, unbeaten

2 c flour

1 1/2 t baking powder

1 1/4 t salt

generous 2 t vanilla

generous 1/2 c chopped nuts (I use walnuts)

 

Preheat oven to 350.*

Melt brown sugar and butter together.  Add eggs & beat.  Add all other ingredients & mix.  Spread in baking pan or on cookie sheet, bake for 30 minutes.  You will think that they are not done yet when you take them out but if you cook them longer, the ones on the edges will be hockey pucks.

Let cool & cut into squares.
 

*I use a 9x13 pyrex pan & do it for 25 minutes at 325.

 

ENJOY!
