Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c sugar
2/3 c butter
2 medium eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 c macadamia nuts, chopped
GLAZE
1 c powdered sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 - 2 Tbsp eggnog

Steps:

  • 1. Line a 13x9 pan with foil, then grease the foil.
  • 2. In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, cook sugar and butter, stirring, until butter is melted. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Stir eggs and vanilla into sugar mixture.
  • 3. Add flour, baking powder, and nutmeg; stir to combine. Stir in nuts. Spread the dough in the prepared pan. Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until edges begin to pull away from the pan.

Tips:

  • Use fresh nutmeg for the best flavor. Pre-ground nutmeg can lose its flavor over time, so it's best to grate your own fresh nutmeg for this recipe.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make the bars tough. Beat them just until they form stiff peaks.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set in the center. Overbaking will make them dry. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape. It is also advisable to chill the bars for at least 30 minutes before slicing, as this will make them easier to cut.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
