Why I Love This Recipe
These are a rich, chewy bar cookie that tastes like pecan pie.
Ingredients You'll Need
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar, divided
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened

2 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup chopped pecans
Directions
Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, butter, flour and dash salt; mix or knead with hands until well combined (mixture will look dry).
