2/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour

FILLING:
6 squares (1 ounce each) semisweet chocolate
1-1/4 cups light corn syrup
1-1/4 cups sugar
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-1/4 cups chopped pecans

DRIZZLE:
4 squares (1 ounce each) semisweet chocolate

Recipe



In a small mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in flour. Press into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° 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. Yield: 4 dozen.
