Description
These squares are a tasty (but somewhat sticky) way to enjoy a treat. The combination of coconut with walnut makes these squares a delicious delight.
Instructions
Base: Combine flour, brown sugar and butter in a bowl with a pastry blender or by cutting butter into dry ingredients with two knives until the largest lumps are the size of peas.

While baking prepare topping.
