#2934 - Peanut Butter Dream Squares

(by Shirley McNevich)

Crust: 1/4 cup softened Parkay margarine; 1/2 cup Jif peanut butter; 1 1/2 cups Domino's dark brown sugar (packed); 1 1/3 cups flour

Topping: 2 beaten eggs; 1 tsp. vanilla; 1/2 tsp. baking powder; 3/4 cup Baker's angelflake coconut; 8oz. Nestle's MINI semi-sweet chocolate bits; Domino's powdered sugar for sprinkling

Crust: in a bowl add Parkay, peanut butter, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar and 1 cup of the flour--mix with a pastry blender to make crumbs. Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 9 x 9 cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. While the crust is baking, in a bowl add beaten eggs, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, vanilla, baking powder, coconut and mini chocolate bits--stir to mix. When you remove the crust from the oven, spread the coconut mixture evenly all over the top of the hot crust. Return mixture to oven and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Cool completely. Sprinkle powdered sugar all over the top, then cut into bars or squares.
