Caramel & Brazil Nut Cake Bars image

Ummmm caramel and salty brazil nuts yummy. This is a moist, almost cake like bar. I've also made them with macadamia nuts and had great results, I think that almonds and cashews would also work well in this treat. This is also good drizzled with milk chocolate.

Time 32m

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup brazil nut, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup brazil nut, caorsely chopped
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
4 1/2 teaspoons heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a 8 " square pan and set aside until needed.
  • Combine the flour, sugars, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix well.
  • Lightly beat in eggs, do not over mix, add the nuts and spread in the bottom of the prepard pan.
  • Bake at 350 for 25 minutes. If you have a gas oven or if you have a hot oven you may want to check at 20 minutes, cake should spring back when touched.
  • In a small bowl, mix the topping ingredients and pour over cake. Broil for 1 or 2 minutes until bubbly and light brown.
  • While still warm, cut into bars and cool on a wire rack. If using chocolate to drizzle over the bars, do that after they have cooled.
  • Then grab a tea, coffee or milk and enjoy this decadent treat.
