      Title: Black Walnut Bars
 Categories: Cookies
      Yield: 1 servings
 
      1 c  Light brown sugar
           Lightly packed
      1 c  Butter or margarine
  1-1/2 c  All purpose flour

           Top layer:
      2 c  Light brown sugar; lightly
           Packed
      4 lg Eggs; well beaten
      2 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 ts Salt
      2 tb Flour
    1/2 ts Baking powder
      3 c  Black walnuts; chopped
 
    Cream the sugar and butter together in a large bowl until well creamed
  then add the flour thoroughly. Spread evenly in a greased 9x13-inch pan.
  Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 5 minutes. It will look bubbly with holes
  all over, but this is fine. Let cool while making the top layer.

    For the top, cream the brown sugar and eggs together until light and
  fluffy.  Add the vanilla. Sift the salt, flour, and baking powder together
  in another bowl and add to the egg mixture. Fold in the nuts and pour over
  the baked bottom layer. Return to oven and bake at 350° for 20 minutes or
  until light brown on top and firm to the touch. Cool and cut into bars. DO
  not cut them too thin or they will crumble. These keep well if stored in an
  airtight container.

  Yield 3-4 dozen 1x2-inch bars.

  Note.  If you cant find black walnuts regular walnuts or pecans can be
  used.
