Steps:
- 1. CRUST: Blend together butter flour and brown sugar with pastry blender until crumbly and well blended. Press into pan and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- 2. TOPPING: Beat eggs and brown sugar until fluffy. Add baking powder and salt to flour; blend into egg mixture. Stir in gooseberries. Spread over baked crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- 3. Cool on cooling rack and cut into bars.
Tips:
- For a crispy crust, pre-bake the bars for 15 minutes before adding the filling.
- Use fresh gooseberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh gooseberries, you can use frozen or canned gooseberries.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can use a fork or pastry blender to mix the butter and flour for the crust.
- Be sure to chill the dough before rolling it out. This will prevent the dough from becoming too sticky.
- Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing will make the filling tough.
- Bake the bars until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them into squares.
