Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • ¾ cup chopped dried mango

  • 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour, divided

  • ¼ cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting

  • ½ cup unsalted butter

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup chopped mixed nuts

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon lemon extract

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. Place mango into a small saucepan and cover with water; cook over low heat until soft, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain, and set aside.

  3. Mix 1 cup flour and 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar together in a large bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into the prepared baking pan to make a crust.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.

  5. Mix drained mango, brown sugar, nuts, remaining 1/3 cup flour, eggs, baking powder, lemon extract, and salt together in a medium bowl until well combined. Pour over baked crust and cover with aluminum foil.

  6. Bake until set, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool slightly, then dust with confectioners' sugar. Cool completely before cutting into 12 bars.
