1 cup margarine
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
Cream margarine and sugar. Add flour and cornstarch. Blend well. Pat the crumbly mixture onto a
11 x 17 x 3/4" cookie pan or jelly roll pan. Bake 15 minutes at 300.
2nd layer:
4 eggs
4 T flour
2 t vanilla
1 cup coconut
1 lb. brown sugar
1/2 t baking powder
2 cups chopped walnuts
Beat eggs with brown sugar. Add flour and baking powder. Blend well. Add vanilla. Stir in nuts and coconut. Pour over first layer and bake 15 minutes at 300 and 5 additional minutes at 350 to brown if needed. Cool.
3rd layer:
1/2 cube margarine
1 4-oz. package cream cheese
1/2 lb. powdered sugar
1 t vanilla
Beat until smooth and spread over 2nd layer. Chill for easier slicing. Cut into 1" squares.
I had high hopes for this recipe knowing how much I like 7-layer bars. I thought it was pretty good, but nobody else liked it. And when I say that, I mean that when I gave out cookie plates to various people at Xmas, they said to me "What was that thing in the foil on the plate? That wasn't very good." Granted people probably shouldn't say that when given free cookies, but maybe they just were trying to make sure I didn't make that again? So sadly I will chuck this card into the trash.
