Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 jar (6 ounces) maraschino cherries
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted, optional

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pat into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 18-22 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
  2. 2
    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the eggs, brown sugar, salt, baking powder and vanilla. Drain cherries, reserving 2 tablespoons juice; set juice aside. Chop cherries; add to brown sugar mixture. Stir in walnuts. Pour over crust and spread evenly. Bake 20-25 minutes longer or until set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. 3
    For icing, combine confectioners' sugar and butter in a bowl. Add enough reserved cherry juice to achieve desired consistency; drizzle over bars. Sprinkle with coconut if desired.
