How to Make Chocolate Walnut Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- **Base Layer:**
- In a large bowl, combine all base layer ingredients (see below). Crumble together with your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into an ungreased 9x9 inch baking pan.
- Set aside.
- **Middle Layer:**
- In a separate bowl, beat eggs until light and foamy.
- Gradually add the remaining middle layer ingredients (see below), mixing well after each addition. The batter should be smooth.
- Pour the batter evenly over the base layer in the prepared pan.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the squares cool completely in the pan before proceeding.
- **Top Layer (Icing):**
- In a small bowl, whisk together all icing ingredients (see below) until smooth. Add a teaspoon of milk or water at a time if needed to reach desired consistency for spreading.
- Once the squares are completely cool, spread the icing evenly over the top.
- Arrange whole and half walnuts on top of the icing to mark the squares for cutting, placing the half walnut in the center of each square.
- Once the icing has set slightly, cut into squares and serve.
