Servings 15
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup butter cold
- 2 eggs slightly beaten
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- ½ cup light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of an 11x7x1½-inch baking pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust bakes, stir together the eggs, pecans, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, and vanilla in another bowl until well combined.
- Pour the mixture over the hot crust, spreading it evenly. Return to the oven and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the filling is set.
- Let the bars cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into squares or bars to serve.
