Decadent brown sugar and pecans on a shortbread crust - like mini pecan pies in a melt-in-your-mouth bite! This recipe was my mother's and the squares are a hit wherever I take them. The dessert dish always goes home empty. I usually use pecans, but other nuts can work also. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour |
3/4 cup margarine or 3/4 cup butter |
3 tablespoons sugar |
3 eggs |
2 1/4 cups light brown sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Beat crust ingredients together until crumbly (mixer works well). 2. Press mixture into a 9x13 baking pan (glass works fine). 3. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. 4. In a separate bowl, combine eggs, brown sugar, vanilla and chopped nuts. Pour over baked crust base and bake another 20 minutes. 5. Cut into squares when cool. |
