Category: Bars

ADOBE BARS
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
3 eggs, divided
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup miniature marshmallows (see Note)
1 cup packed light brown sugar

Preheat the oven to 350. Coat a 13x9 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cream the butter and sugar. Add 1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks, reserving the egg whites for later use. Beat until well mixed. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt; mix until thoroughly combined. Spread the mixture into the baking dish and sprinkle with the nuts, chocolate chips, and marshmallows.

In another medium bowl, beat the reserved egg whites until stiff peaks form, then fold in the brown sugar. Spread over the top of the batter and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool, then cut into bars and serve. NOTE: No miniature marshmallows on hand? Just cut regular-sized marshmallows into 6 pieces each.
