Ingredients:

Serving

2/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
2 cups flour
6 (1 oz) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares
1 1/4 cups light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups sugar
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups chopped pecans
4 (1 oz) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares

Directions:

In a small mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in flour. Press into a greased 15 x 10 x 1 inch baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt chocolate with corn syrup over low heat; stir until smooth. Remove from the heat. Stir in the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Add pecans.
Spread evenly over hot crust. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until firm around the edges. Cool on a wire rack. Melt chocolate and shortening; stir until smooth. Drizzle over bars.
