1/2 c. butter
1 c. white sugar
1 c. light brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped nuts
1 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Cream the butter with the white sugar. Separate 1 egg and reserve the white. Add the yolk and the whole egg to the sugar mixture and beat for 2 minutes. Stir in salt, flour and powder to form a soft dough. Spread in a greased 8x12 inch pan. Sprinkle with nuts.

Beat the egg white with the brown sugar until stiff. Spread over the top of the dough. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 30-35 minutes. Do not over bake. Cool in pan and cut into squares before serving. Makes 16-24 squares.
