INSTRUCTIONS

Have all ingredients at room temperature. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line
a 7- by 11-inch or similar 2-quart rectangular baking pan with aluminum
foil, allowing it to overhang the two narrow ends of the pan by about 2
inches. Using an electric mixer, beat together butter, granulated sugar, 1
egg yolk and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla. Stir in 3/4 cup flour; knead until
smoothly incorporated. Firmly press dough into the pan to form a smooth,
even layer. Bake for 10 minutes; set aside. Spread nuts and coconut in a
baking pan and toast in oven, stirring occasionally, 7 to 10 minutes or
until coconut is very lightly browned. Set aside. Meanwhile, beat together
until well-blended whole eggs, brown sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons flour, baking
powder, salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla. Stir the coconut-nut mixture into
the egg mixture. Spread mixture evenly over the dough. Bake on middle oven
rack for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is firm and golden brown and a
toothpick inserted in the center comes out slightly wet. Transfer the pan
to a wire rack; let cool slightly. While bars are still warm, prepare
icing: Mix together butter, powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla. If
necessary, stir in enough water to make a spreadable consistency. Spread
icing over top of bars. Let stand until thoroughly cool and the icing sets.
Using the overhanging foil as handles, lift the cake to a cutting board.
Carefully peel off the foil. Cut into sections. Yields 12 bars.
