Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
1 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour*
4 large eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup dark corn syrup*
2 tablespoons white vinegar*
1 cup raisins, currants or chopped walnuts - optional (I use 1/2 cup currants and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Line the pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang around the edges.
  • In a large bowl beat the butter and powdered sugar until fluffy.
  • Mix in the flour - the mixture will be thick.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the top looks set and is a pale, golden color. Remove from the oven and leave the oven turned on.
  • Make the filling as the base layer is baking.
  • Beat the butter, brown sugar and flour until evenly combined.
  • Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Mix in the corn syrup and vinegar. Stir in the optional raisins, currants or walnuts.
  • Pour the mixture over the gently baked crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top looks set and if you give the pan a nudge the filling layer doesn't look liquidy.
  • Remove from the oven and cool completely before slicing for clean cuts and to ensure that the bars are set.
  • When ready to slice, lift the bars out of the pan using the overhang of the parchment paper. Place on the cutting board and slice using a sharp knife. If the edges seem too crispy, simply slice off the edges.
