Quick and simple

 The last time I cooked a "Lottie" recipe was a month ago, May 25th.  To say the last month has been hectic would be a major understatement.

This sounded like something simple, and it was.  It made a ton, of course, so I froze them and snacked on them for a couple weeks.  Of course there was guesswork involved.  I guessed at the amount of vanilla and chocolate, since Lottie just assumed whoever was making this recipe 80ish years later would know.  Unfortunately, I had to throw out the first crust.  I messed it up, long story.  The final product tasted really good though, even without jello.


Tiny Toffee Squares

1 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 rgg

2 cups flour

salt

vanilla (I used a teaspoon)

sweet chocolate, melted (I used a bag of chocolate chips)

Mixed salted nuts

Mix first five ingredients.  Bake 25 minutes at 350 degrees.  Remove from oven and spread immediately with melted chocolate and nuts.
