YUMMIES, BARS, WITH BROWN SUGAR MERINGUE

Steps:

• 1. Grease a 9 X 9 pan, or small rectangular pan; Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. If you want to add chopped nuts, they can be placed in the egg white mixture or spread on top of the first layer, the cooky base.
• 3. Spread the cooky dough in the pan, top with the nuts if desired, and spread the egg white mixture over all.
• 4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. This does get brown, so you need to check it, and it can get a crackled top which is normal. If you under-bake it, the cooky layer is soggy, so let it get brown, but not burned on top.Cool and then cut into small bars or squares.
