    List of Ingredients




    White Chip Macadamia Bars


    2 cups Classic White Chips
    1 cup butter, at room temperature
    1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
    2 large eggs, at room temperature
    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
    2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    3/4 cup macadamia pieces, coarsely chopped

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350�F. In medium-size bowl, beat butter with brown sugar at medium speed until creamy and lightened in color, about 4 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating at low speed until combined. Add vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and salt to creamed mixture, and fold until combined. Fold in chips and macadamia pieces. Spread batter in a 13" x 9" pan in an even layer. Bake at 350�F for 27 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 40 minutes before cutting into squares. Store in airtight container at room temperature.

    Optional: Espresso White Chip Macadamia Bars: Add 1/4 cup brewed espresso or 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder to the batter after combining eggs. Or substitute 1/4 cup water and 4 teaspoons instant coffee, if espresso is not available. Bake as directed above.

    Yield: 3 dozen bars
