Ingredients
For the shortbread crust
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 cup butter softened
For the pecan pie filling
- 5 eggs
- 1 cup dark corn syrup
- ⅔ cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ⅛ tsp salt
- 2½ cups chopped pecan
Instructions
For the shortbread crust
- Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment, or grease bottom and sides of pan.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine butter, flour and brown sugar together.
- Press mixture into the pan, bake for 12-15 minutes, then remove from oven and set aside.
For the pecan pie filling
- While crust is baking, blend eggs, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla and salt until well combined. I like to use an electric mixer to make it fast, but you can also easily do this by hand. Then, stir in pecans and pour pecan mixture over crust.
- Reduce the oven to 275° and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until filling is set.
- Allow the Pecan Pie Bars to cool completely, then cut into bars.
