The recipe.
Out Of This World Bars!
Crust
3/4 cup butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
dash salt
Mix and pat into a 9 x 13 inch pan. Bake at 350 F for 10 minutes.
Filling
2 eggs beaten
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 cup dates, cut fine. (optional)
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
1 teaspoon Vanilla
I usually do not add the pecans or dates and it tastes really good without. I am sure it is also really good with the dates and pecans too.
Mix and spread on hot crust and bake for 25 minutes at 350 F. Let cool.
Frosting
4 tablespoons butter
3 oz cream cheese
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 almond flavoring (optional)
Spread over the cooled bars.
These bars are also really good if served a day later.
