CHEESE TOPPING

Source: "Treasure For My Daughter", Eagle Publishing, Montreal, Quebec.

Combine melted butter, sugar, flour, baking soda and cornflakes; a processor makes it easy. Spread on bottom of buttered 8-inch pan, pressing firmly. Cover with cheese topping and nuts. Bake in preheated 375 deg F oven for 40 minutes. Cut into squares when cool.

Cheese Topping: Combine all ingredients, blending well; again, the processor is great.

Variations: Save some of the base to sprinkle on top. Mix ½ cup raisins into topping. Sprinkle with chopped cranberries (fresh or dried) Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest Volume 98 #024 by Lee Jourard <lchaim@...> on Jan 12, 1998
