Made these bars, along with several other cookies, for our contribution to an early New Year's celebration potluck! These wonderful tasties were very well received ~ Gone in no time, in other words! Many thanks for sharing this great recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

This is a great recipe! I'm so sorry I waited to try it, 'cause we just loved it! :) DH said I don't have to make pecan pies anymore. (That means he really likes them!) I did reduce the recipe, by half, and used a 9 inch square baking dish, which seemed to work out just fine! Thanks so much for sharing, AZPARZYCH.

Delish and so easy to make. Our entire family loves pecans in anything, so I knew this would be a hit. Sorry I was late in reviewing your recipe, I tagged in everydays a holiday.

These are amazing! I bake for a group of about 50 people every week, and brought these tonight... one person said these were the best thing I've ever brought! Which is saying alot, because I've brought well over 100 different cookies and bars over the last year! These definately make the grade! Thanks so much for posting this simple & super recipe! Made for 1-2-3 Hits Tag.
