Yummy Nut Bars

"This is an adaptation of a recipe by Jowar Flour Company. It is really a yummy recipe that I would serve to anyone. My family cleans up these in one evening.I have made it with different nut blends and it works with any I have used .It really is suppose to say 3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp sweet sorghum flour, but it didn't want to work that way, so the sorghum flour is in two lines. Also the xanthan gum is suppose to be a heaping 1/4 tsp. I have never tried it with a level 1/4 tsp, but it may work just fine."

directions

  • Grind macadamia nuts to make 1 cup, Then toast the macadamia nuts in the oven at 350* for about 8 minutes (be sure to watch them so they don't burn) I also like to add 1/2 cup walnuts for 1/2 cup of the macadamia nuts,It also makes the recipe cost a little less to make, since walnuts are cheaper than macadamia nuts.
  • Put the sorghum flour, tapioca flour,xanthan gum, soda, sugar, vanilla,honey, eggs, and macadamia nuts,in the mixer bowl and blend together on low speed. It will get kinda chunky looking. I found it was a little sticky. Press into a greased 9 x 13 pan. If it is sticking to your hands you can dip your fingers into a little sorghum flour to help with this process. Bake at350* for 8 to 10 minutes. While it is baking make the frosting using the powdered sugar, mayonnaise, water and vanilla.
  • If the frosting is hard to mix, add a little more water, but be careful to not add too much at a time.
  • Frost the bars while they are still warm, so the frosting sets up like a glaze. You can reduce the amount of frosting if you like, The original recipe had less sugar in the glaze, but we like it this way.
