Categories: Bars, Cookies, Copycat
     Yield: 21 Bars

     2    Egg whites
     1 c  Sugar; +5 tb
     2 tb Brown sugar
     2 tb Molasses
 1 1/2 c  Banana puree *
     3 tb Shortening
   1/4 c  Whole milk
   1/2 ts Vanilla butter nut extract
 1 1/2 c  All-purpose flour
   1/2 ts Salt
   1/4 ts Baking soda

 * Puree whole bananas (approximately 3) in a food processor or blender
 until smooth and creamy.

 Preheat oven to 350°F.

 In a large bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric mixer until they
 become thick. Do not use a plastic bowl for this.

 Add the sugar to the egg whites and continue to beat until the mixture
 forms soft peaks.

 Add the brown sugar, molasses, banana puree, shortening, milk, and
 vanilla butter nut flavoring to the mixture, beating after each
 addition.

 In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients.

 While beating the wet mixture, slowly add the bowl of dry ingredients.

 Lightly grease a 9x14" pan with a light coating of non-stick cooking
 spray. Be sure to coat the sides as well as the bottom of the pan.
 Dump about 3 tb sugar into the pan, then tilt and shake the pan so
 that a light layer of sugar coats the entire bottom of the pan, and
 about halfway up the sides. Pour out the excess sugar.

 Pour the batter into the pan, and spread it evenly around the inside
 of the pan. Sprinkle a light coating of sugar--about 2 tb--over the
 entire top surface of the batter. Gently shake the pan from
 side-to-side to evenly distribute the sugar over the batter. Bake for
 25 to 28 minutes or until the cake begins to pull away from the sides
 of the pan.

 Remove the cake from the oven and turn it out onto a cooling rack.
 When cake has cooled, place it onto a sheet of wax paper on a cutting
 board and slice across the cake 6 times, creating 7 even slices. Next
 cut the cake lengthwise twice, into thirds, creating a total of 21
 snack bars. When the bars have completely cooled, store them in a
 resealable plastic bag or an airtight container.
