This recipe was created from an old recipe. I added nuts to the crust. I also added maple syrup and butter to the filling. I topped it off with a white chocolate maple drizzle. Enjoy!

  • 3. Make the filling. In a sauce pan. Combine all ingredients together except for the nuts,and vanilla. Stir and cook over high heat until boiling. Reduce heat to medium high.Stir until the mixture gets thickened. This should take about 7-10 minutes.
  • 4. Add the vanilla and nuts. Pour on top of cookie crust. Spread mixture evenly on top. Place back in oven and bake about 20-30 minutes. The filling will look thick and browned nicely.
  • 5. Remove from oven and cool. Cut in to squares. Serve alone,or with ice cream on top.
