Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, beat together 1 1/2
cups flour, 1/2 cup butter and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Press into the bottom
of an ungreased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan. Bake for 10 minutes. In another
bowl, beat the eggs. Stir in the coconut, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 2
tablespoons flour, baking powder, vanilla extract and salt. Stir in the
chopped nuts. Spread over the baked mixture. Bake for 20 minutes longer,
or until set. Meanwhile, combine the powdered sugar and melted butter. Add
enough lemon juice to make a glaze. Drizzle over the warm bars in the pan.
