Heat oven to 375°F.
-
STEP 2
Combine flour, sugar and nuts in large bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pat mixture evenly into ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Tip #1
Tropical fruits, once hard for consumers to find, are now exported in abundance to the United States. Typical tropical fruit varieties include mangoes, papayas, bananas, coconut and pineapple. Because these are fruits that dry well, their exotic flavors are intensified in their dried form, perfect for cookie baking!
