Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup egg (about 1 large egg)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup dark corn syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cups pecans

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking perfection.

  2. Prepare the crust: Reserve 3/4 cup of cake mix and set it aside for later use. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining cake mix with melted butter and 1 egg. Mix the ingredients until they form a crumbly texture.

  3. Press the crust: Press the crumbly mixture into the bottom of a greased 13 x 9 inch baking pan, ensuring an even layer across the surface.

  4. Bake the crust: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the crust turns a beautiful golden brown color, filling your kitchen with irresistible aromas.

  5. Prepare the filling: While the crust bakes, prepare the filling by combining the reserved cake mix with brown sugar, dark corn syrup, vanilla extract, and 3 eggs. Mix the ingredients until they are well blended, forming a smooth and creamy mixture.

  6. Add the pecans: Once the crust is baked to perfection, pour the prepared filling over the top, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the filling, adding a delightful crunch to every bite.

  7. Bake to perfection: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 35 minutes, allowing the filling to set and the flavors to meld together beautifully.

  8. Cool and serve: Once baked, allow the pecan bars to cool in the pan for a short while before cutting them into squares. This will ensure they hold their shape perfectly when served.

  9. Enjoy: Serve these Perfect Pecan Bars as a delectable dessert option for family gatherings, potlucks, or simply as a sweet treat to enjoy any time of the day. Watch as they disappear from the plate in no time, leaving smiles on everyone’s faces!
