I call these "lazy girl" pecan pie bars. Bring these to a gathering, and you'll never have leftovers. Which, in my opinion, is not always a good thing. Make sure to keep some for yourself, or you might miss out!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
These pecan pie bars have all the flavors of pecan pie but can be made in a snap. The base is a delicious shortbread cookie crust. Then there is a gooey and sweet topping filled with chopped pecans. Simple to make, this recipe is an easy way to enjoy the flavors of pecan pie.

How To Make lazy girl pecan pie bars
-
1Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl or standing mixer combine the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 2 sticks of butter. Mix well. The mixture will be dry and crumbly.
-
2In a large pan, preferably 10x15, grease the bottom of the pan or I prefer to use parchment paper to line. Pour the crust mixture onto the greased pan and press firmly to create a crust. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
-
3In a separate bowl, or standing mixer with bowl, combine eggs, corn syrup, sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and chopped pecans; mix well. Set aside until the crust is done baking.
-
4After 10 minutes, remove the crust from the oven.
-
5Pour the prepared pecan filling mixture on top of the hot crust. Use a spatula or spoon to distribute evenly.
-
6Place back in the oven. Bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
-
7Let cool and serve.
