Once I melted the butter to mix with the brown sugar and pecans. Bad idea�the topping sank to the bottom.
I had these squares in October of 1981 when I was speaking at Hope Lutheran Church in La Grange, Illinois. The lady who made the dessert was Norma Pollock. It always seems fitting to pass along the name with a good dessert! Enjoy.
