Yield Makes 30

Number Of Ingredients 13

Crust
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1 large egg yolk
11/2 cups all purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
Filling
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9x9x2-inch metal cake pan. Using electric mixer, beat butter, sugar, and egg yolk in bowl to blend. Add flour and salt; beat until moist clumps form. Gather dough together. Press dough over bottom and 1/2 inch up sides of pan. Bake crust until golden, about 20 minutes. Cool.
  • For filling:
  • Combine first 4 ingredients in medium saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring until butter melts and mixture is smooth. Boil filling 30 seconds. Remove from heat; mix in vanilla, then nuts.
  • Pour hot filling into crust. Bake bars until filling is bubbling in center, about 15 minutes. Cool bars completely in pan on rack (filling will become firm). Chill at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.) Cut into 30 bars.

Overall, I thought these bars were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These bars were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra butter or oil next time.

I had some trouble getting the bars to set properly. I think I might have overcooked them a bit.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. They're still very good and I would definitely make them again.

I'm not a huge fan of pecans, but I still really enjoyed these bars. The maple flavor is strong and the bars are very moist.

These maple pecan sticky bars were a hit with my family! They're gooey, sweet, and have the perfect amount of crunch from the pecans. I'll definitely be making them again.
