How to Make Chinese Chews
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar, and 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour in a medium bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture evenly into a greased 9x10 inch baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1 cup (140g) sweetened shredded coconut, and 1 cup (150g) chopped walnuts.
- Pour the coconut-walnut mixture evenly over the baked crust in the pan.
- Bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the Chinese Chews cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
- Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve.
