Recipe Introduction


A buttery crust is topped with a chocolate, corn syrup, egg and pecan mixture then baked into rich, gooey bar cookies that taste like pecan pie.





List of Ingredients



• 2 cups flour
  
• 2 cups sugar, divided
  
• 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
  
• 1 1/2 cups corn syrup
  
• 6 (1 ounce) squares BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate
  
• 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  
• 2 1/2 cups PLANTERS Chopped Pecans
  






Instructions



1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Beat flour, 1/2 cup of the sugar, the butter and salt in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press firmly onto bottom of prepared pan. Bake 20 min. or until lightly browned.
   
2. Microwave corn syrup and chocolate in large microwavable bowl on HIGH 2-1/2 min. or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 1-1/2 min. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Add remaining 1-1/2 cups sugar, the eggs and vanilla; mix well. Stir in pecans. Pour over hot crust; spread to evenly cover crust.
   
3. Bake an additional 35 min. or until filling is firm around the edges and slightly soft in center. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Cut into 48 bars to serve.
