Slab Pecan Pie Bars
Report
Whether it's Thanksgiving or Christmas, these Pecan Pie Bars are a favorite on the dessert table here in the States and I bet elsewhere. Rich, smokey pecans mixed in with a sweet, thick filling of eggs and sugar make for a memorable treat. Prep time includes pre-baking the crust.

Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- 2 large eggs slightly beaten
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup light-color corn syrup
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups whole pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 15x10" jelly roll pan.(See Note 1) with foil or parchment paper. Set pan aside.
- For crust, in a medium bowl stir together flour, powdered sugar, and salt. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle crumb mixture into the prepared baking pan and using hands, press to cover bottom. (See Note 2). Bake for 20 minutes or until light brown. Sprinkle with chocolate chips (optional).
- In a medium bowl stir together eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, the 2 tablespoons melted butter, and the vanilla. Add the pecans and gently mix to coat. Pour over the baked crust, spreading evenly. Bake about 20 minutes more or until the filling is set. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.
- Lift uncut bars out of pan by aluminum foil or parchment paper. Transfer to a cutting board; cut into bars. Makes 24 bars or 48 smaller ones.
Notes
- Need another baking tray? A 15” x 10” jelly roll pan (150”) can be substituted with one 9” square pan (81”), plus one 8” square or 9” round pan (64”) for a total area of 145”.
