Natalie's Killer Kitchen- Grammy's Yum Yums


Big props to Natalie of Natalie's Killer Kitchen (I love your blog) for these bars. I made the mistake of cutting these while they were still warm so they gooed all over the counter, but eventually they set up nicely. You can sub any other kind of nut you want- I think I used slivered almonds.

yield: 12 bars

1 1/4 cup AP Flour
4 TBS Brown Sugar
1 stick (1/2 cup) Butter, melted
2 Eggs
1 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup Pecans

prepare a 10 x 10 baking pan
preheat oven to 350 degrees

1. Mix first three ingredients in a bowl with your hands. Press evenly into prepared pan and reserve 1/2 cup of the dough for topping.
2. Whisk eggs, brown sugar and vanilla in a bowl until smooth and frothy. Should be light in color. Add pecans and stir to mix.
3. Pour mixture over unbaked crust. Sprinkle with remaining crust.
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes (30 only if your oven is known to be a slow baker). Cool all the way before cutting into squares.
