˚
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla

(I use 2 envelopes Choco-Bake
Or Redi-Melt chocolate)

Cream butter, gradually add sugar continue beating till light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs and vanilla.
Add flour and salt to creamed mixture.
Spread half of the mixture in the bottom of prepared pan.
Add chocolate to remaining half in bowl and blend well. Scrape bowl.
Carefully spread top of white layer. I put dollops of batter at corners
and at various spots and spread together.

Bake for 30 minutes at 350
˚. Edges should pull away from sides
and toothpick should come out clean.
Cool on wire rack. Frost when completely cooled.

Frosting
5 Tablespoons flour
½ cup milk
½ cup butter
½ cup shortening
1 cup sugar (regular, granulated)
½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon almond extract
(or 2 teaspoons vanilla)

Cream butter and shortening,.
Add rest of ingredients and beat on high for 10 minutes.
Spread on cooled bars.


Sara's Strawberry Salad ( I made this already and Jeff loved it!)
Dressing
1 cup Mayo
1/2 cup sugar ( I used about 1/3 and it was still good)
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup milk
poppy seeds

romaine lettuce
thinly sliced red onion
blanched almonds
sliced strawberries

Since Rachel is allergic to nuts, I pounded a package of Ramen Noodles until they were all broken (throw away seasoning pkg) and sauteed them until brown in about 2 t. of butter. Yummy with the salad.
