Caramel Pecan Bars
|
 |
1 cup butter, cubed
2-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups chopped pecans
Confectioners' sugar, optional
In a large saucepan, heat butter and brown sugar over medium heat until sugar is
dissolved. In a small mixing bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla and butter mixture.
Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to the butter mixture and mix
well. Stir in pecans. Spread into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at
350° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes
out with moist crumbs and edges are crisp. Cool on a wire rack. Dust with
confectioners' sugar if desired. Cut into bars.
Yield: 4 dozen.
