Chocolate Maple Nut Bars
Oh these are wonderful, wonderful. The first time I made these was for Paul’s Christmas party in 1993. They were
a big hit!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups of un-sifted flour
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cold margarine or butter
2 eggs
1 (14-oz.) can Sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 teaspoons maple flavoring
2 cups chopped nuts (I used pecans)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350F.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt; cut in margarine until crumbly. Stir in 1 beaten egg. Press firmly onto bottom of 9×13-inch baking pan. Bake 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat Sweetened and Condensed milk, remaining 1 egg and flavoring; stir in nuts.
Sprinkle chips over prepared crust. Top with nut mixture; bake 25 minutes longer or until golden. Cool, then cut into bars. Store tightly covered at room temperature.
