Pecan Bar Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, melt the butter and mix in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix in Dry Ingredients

    Add the flour and salt to the butter-sugar mixture and stir until a crumbly dough forms. Press this mixture into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and the remaining brown sugar until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine and Add Pecans

    Fold the pecan halves into the filling mixture and pour it evenly over the crust in the baking pan.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly golden on top.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the pecan bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares and serving.
