Recipe: Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie Bars!

Recipe via Betty Crocker®

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups Bisquick mix
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup firm butter or margarine
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup dark corn syrup {I used light corn syrup instead}
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted, cooled
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips {I used the mini kind}
• 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

Instructions:

Pre-heat oven to 350º F.  In a medium bowl, mix Bisquick mix and powdered sugar.

Cut in firm butter, using a pastry blender, until crumbly.

Press firmly in the bottom of a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.  Bake 15 minutes; Cool.

In a large bowl, beat eggs, corn syrup, melted butter and vanilla with spoon until smooth.

Stir in chocolate chips and pecans {I even added some Heath Bar crumbles!}.

Pour over crust.  Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown & set.

Refrigerate at least 2 hours until chocolate is firm. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows.
Enjoy!
