Delicious and easy! Made with honey instead of corn syrup!
- 2 sticks unsalted butter softened
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 2 cups chopped pecans
-
Preheat the oven 350 degrees and line a 9x13 pan with foil. Leave enough for a 2 inch overhang on all sides. Enough for you to be able to pull it out of the pan when it's all done.
-
Start by making the crust. Cream together the butter and brown sugar until fluffy in a stand mixer. Add in the flour and salt and mix until crumbly.
-
Press the crust into the foil-lined pan and bake for 20 minutes until golden.
-
While the crust is baking start to prepare the topping. Combine the butter, brown sugar, honey and heavy cream into a saucepan. Stir over medium heat. Simmer for 1 minute then stir in the chopped pecans.
-
Remove the crust from the oven and immediately pour the pecan filling over the hot crust spreading it to cover the entire surface.
-
Return the pan to the oven and bake an additional 15-20 minutes. Be careful not to over bake them!
-
Remove the pan and allow the bars to fully cool in the pan.
-
Use the foil overhang to lift out the bars and transfer them to a cutting board. Peel off the foil and slice into bars! Enjoy!
**A helpful hint when measuring honey is to spray your measuring cup with cooking spray before adding the honey! It slides right out!**
