CHANGO BARS

A2 brought this recipe home from school. It was at the end of a book they read as a class, and she's been dying to make them. So today we did and they are delish! This is what the heading on the recipe page says:

"These recipes are from a real Mexican-Jewish-American bakery, Los Bagels Bakery & Cafe, in Arcata, California. Kids should ask grown-ups for help with recipes."

We decided it would be great to meet an authentic Mexican-Jewish-American! :) We didn't add the nuts - for 2 reasons: I figured they'd get eaten better without, and we didn't have any, so that made the decision really easy. Six thumbs up from us. Chango Bars 1/2 cup Butter 1/2 cup Margarine 2 cups Brown Sugar 3 Eggs 2 1/3 cups Flour 1 T. baking powder 1 tsp. salt 1 cup Chocolate Chips 1 cup Mixed Nuts Melt butter and margarine. While this is melting, cream brown sugar and eggs, then add melted butter and margarine. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt and stir into sugar mixture. Fold in chocolate chips and nuts. Pour mixture into greased 9 x 13 inch baking pan and bake 45 to 50 minutes at 350 degrees.
