PECAN PIE BARS WITH SHORTBREAD CRUST RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Pecan Pie Bars With Shortbread Crust Recipe - Food.com image

One of my favorite bars, this works well also with walnuts! The shortbread crust is light and buttery, make certain to make the crust only on a processor, mixing by hand will produce a harder textured crust, also make certain to pour the topping over the crust when it is hot out of the oven, so prepare the topping while the crust is baking, the filling takes only minutes to make! Yield is only estimated depending on size of bars. Cooking time is for both crust and topping.

Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 24 bars

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces (no subs!)
2 cups flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups coarsley chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons whipping cream (unwhipped)

  • Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
  • For the crust: In a processor blend all ingredients until mixture begins to form small clumps.
  • Sprinkle the mixture into prepared baking pan.
  • Lightly press the mixture down with a spatula (do not pat down too much).
  • Bake in the second-lowest oven rack for 20 minutes until golden.
  • Meanwhile prepare the filling/topping: In a heavy saucepan melt butter and stir in brown sugar, honey and whipping cream; simmer mixture for about 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in chopped pecans.
  • Pour the pecan mixture over hot shortbread crust and spread evenly in the pan.
  • Bake on the second-lowest oven rack for about 20-22 minutes.
  • Cool completely in the pan.
  • *NOTE* these bars will cut better if refrigerated.
