What You Need

cup butter or margarine, softened

cups sugar, divided

1/4

tsp. salt

1-1/2

cups light corn syrup

Make It

HEAT oven to 350ºF.

BEAT butter, flour, 1/2 cup sugar and salt with mixer until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press onto bottom of 15x10x1-inch pan sprayed with cooking spray. Bake 20 min. or until lightly browned.

MEANWHILE, microwave corn syrup and 6 oz. chocolate in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2-1/2 min. or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 1-1/2 min.; stir until completely melted. Add remaining sugar, eggs and vanilla; mix well. Stir in nuts.

POUR chocolate mixture over warm crust; spread to evenly cover crust. Bake 35 min. or until filling is firm around edges but still slightly soft in center. Cool completely.

MELT remaining chocolate as directed on package; drizzle over dessert. Let stand until chocolate is firm.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Easy Cleanup

Line pan with foil with ends extending over sides; spray with cooking spray, then use as directed. Lift cooled dessert from pan with foil handles before cutting dessert into bars. Not only are the bars easier to cut, but cleanup is also a snap!

Use Your Stove

Prepare and bake crust as directed. Cook corn syrup and chocolate in large saucepan on very low heat just until chocolate is melted, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Continue as directed.

Very good and easy to make. I stored mine in the fridge and that made them a little less sticky!

Not the same as the one that inspired me to look for the recipe. Too sweet and crumbly.

These bars are delicious! My mom cut this recipe out of a Baker's Chocolate magazine ad YEARS ago. I had fond memories of them from my teen years so I asked her if she would make them for my birthday a couple years ago. She did, and I am happy to say they were just as good as I remembered them. Sooo yummy! Well, I borrowed the recipe from her and I somehow lost it before I had a chance to copy it and give it back. I thought this recipe was lost forever so I cannot tell you how delighted I am to find it on your website. Thank you!

These were excellent! I have made them several times for potlucks and get rave reviews! They are a little deceptive in that they don't look all that great, but then we people eat them, they are pleasantly suprised by how awesome they are!
