Directions

MAKING
2) Cream sugars, and butter well. Beat in egg and vanilla extract.

4) Press the dough into a buttered pan. The bigger the pan, the thinner the nut bars.
5) Spread the dough with apricot jam and set aside.

7) Stir in all the nuts. Remove from heat.
8) Spoon the nut filling over the crust and smooth.
9) Bake in a preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes, or until light brown around the edges and set in the middle.
10)Cool completely, then chill.
11) Cut the bars into squares, then across the diagonal into triangles. Remove the cookies to a work surface lined with parchment paper.
12) Melt the chocolate glaze and butter till the mixture is smooth and hot.
13) Dip the bottoms of the nut bars into the hot mixture and remove excess chocolate with a table knife or similar tool. 14) Place back on the parchment paper and allow the chocolate to harden.
SERVING
15) Serve the nut bars as and when preferred.
