These tender and delicious pecan pie bars have an effortless press-in crust and a custard-like filling. Melted butter, light corn syrup, dark brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt come together for that filling—once the pecan halves are mixed in, all you have to do is pour it into the prepared crust and bake. You can certainly enjoy these bars plain, but a scoop of vanilla ice cream wouldn't hurt, either.Slideshow:Make-Ahead Thanksgiving Desserts

  • Pour the pecan filling into the prebaked pie bar crust and bake for about 35 minutes, until the filling is set. Transfer the pan to a rack and let cool completely. Cut into bars and serve.

Make Ahead

The pecan pie bars can be refrigerated overnight. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

The largest pecans, called mammoth, make a striking presentation. Look for them (approximately 200 to 250 halves per pound) in specialty food shops. Get the在这里烤制的地壳食谱.
