This is a recipe a patient of my father’s (Bob Austin) gave him – along with a plate of cookies.  They are simple enough a 10 year old can make them.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb dark brown sugar (2 cups)
• 4 eggs, well beaten
• 2 1/2 c flour
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp cloves, ground
• pinch of salt
• 1 c nuts, chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat oven 375°.
2. Mix the eggs and sugar well.
3. Add remaining ingredients.
4. Spread thinly into well greased 11×17 pan.
5. Bake for 15 minutes.
6. Do not over bake.

Serves:  5+ dozen
