Butterscotch Meringue Squares

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 3/4 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 egg whites
2 cups brown sugar, packed

Oven: 350 degrees

In a bowl, blend the butter, sugar, egg yolk, flour, baking powder and vanilla until crumbly. Pat mixture into the bottom of a greased 11x8x2-inch baking pan.

Beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually beat in the brown sugar until a stiff satiny meringue is formed. Drop by spoonfuls over mixture in pan and gently spread with a spatula. Bake until meringue is golden, about forty minutes. Let cool in pan before cutting into squares. Serves six.
