    Recipe Introduction


    Janice Held writes that these are a rich, chewy bar cookie that tastes like pecan pie.

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar, divided
    1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
    1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 dash salt
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup flaked coconut
    1 cup chopped pecans

    Recipe



    Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, butter, flour and dash salt; mix or knead with hands until well combined (mixture will look dry). Press in bottom of a greased 9-inch square pan. Beat eggs until foamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon salt; mix well. Stir in coconut and pecans. Spread mixture over layer in pan. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven 30 minutes, if using a glass baking dish; in a 375-degree oven 30 minutes, if using a metal pan. Top should be set and lightly browned. Do not underbake. Let cool. Cut in 1 1/2-inch squares.

    YIELD: 36 Bars
