Pecan Pie Bars
1 package yellow cake mix
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 egg, beaten
3 eggs
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans
Set aside 2/3 cup of the yellow cake mix. Combine remaining cake mix,
margarine and beaten egg. Stir by hand until mixture is crumbly. Press
mixture evenly over bottom and 1-inch up the sides of an ungreased
13x9x2-inch baking pan. Bake at 350 F. for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, for filling, combine the eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar and
vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Add the reserved cake mix. Stir the mixture
by hand until thoroughly combined. Spread filling evenly over the pre-baked
crust, and sprinkle with chopped pecans. Bake at 350 F. for 30-35 minutes
or until filling is set. Cool completely.
