Cakes and Frostings Recipes

Yield: 16-20 bars

• 1 cup crushed Nabisco's vanilla wafers (about 20 to 24)
• 2/3 cup butter, softened
• 1-1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 egg yolks
• 1-1/3 cup chocolate chips, melted
• 2/3 cup walnuts, chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 egg whites
• Fresh whipped cream (optional)

Put half the wafer crumbs in the bottom of an 8x8-inch pan. Cream butter and sugar in a mixing bowl. Stir in egg yolks, chocolate, walnuts, and vanilla extract. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold egg whites into batter. Pour batter over wafer crumbs, and smooth it out. Sprinkle remaining wafer crumbs on top. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

Remove from refrigerator and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Remove and cut into serving-size squares. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
