List of Ingredients




Crust
1 1/4 C. unsalted butter
3/4 C. granulated sugar
2 T. heavy cream
2 egg yolks
2 1/2 C. flour

Filling
1/2 C. unsalted butter
1 C. brown sugar
1/4 C. sugar
1/3 C. honey
1/8 C. heavy cream
2 3/4 C. pecan pieces, lightly toasted

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 15 x 10-inch sheet pan; set aside.

Crust
Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons heavy cream and egg yolks, mixing until smooth. Slowly add flour, mixing until just incorporated. Do not over-mix. Press into the prepared sheet pan and bake for 8 to 10 minutes until barely golden. Let cool. Reduce oven temperature to 325ºF.

Filling
In a medium saucepan, melt together the butter, brown sugar, sugar and honey. Bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes.

Stir in cream and remove from heat. Stir in pecans and pour into the pre-baked cookie shell. Bake at 325ºF for 20 to 25 minutes until bubbling on top. Cool and cut into 1 1/2-inch squares. Makes about 60 squares.
