"I am not sure where I got this recipe, but it's been in my collection for a long time. You can vary this recipe by changing the nuts you use. I have used peanuts, pecans, or walnuts in the past. Sometimes, I sprinkle a handful of chocolate chips along with nuts for something different. An easy-to-make square."
