Time 1h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
⅓ cup margarine
½ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup finely chopped pecans
2 eggs
¾ cup dark corn syrup
¼ cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Sift 1 1/2 cup flour with baking powder in a bowl. Cream margarine with 1/2 cup brown sugar in a separate large bowl, beating mixture until smooth. Stir flour mixture into creamed butter mixture and stir in 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans. Press the crust into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until hot, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs until foamy in a bowl; stir in dark corn syrup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smoothly combined; pour over prebaked crust. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup pecans and return to oven.
  • Return to oven and bake until the topping is set, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pan before cutting into bars.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pecan bars turned out dry and crumbly. I'm going to try making them again with a different recipe.
