Happy Holidays from the BBHN!!! Watch me bake gooey Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars. These bars are a delectable treat that your family will request year after year. Enjoy!

Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars (Recipe by KRAFT)
1 Cup Butter, SOFTENED
2 Cups Flour
2 Cups Sugar, DIVIDED
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1-1/2 Cups Light Corn Syrup
8 Ounces Dark Chocolate Chips, DIVIDED
4 Eggs, BEATEN
1-1/2 Teaspoons Vanilla
2-1/2 Cups Chopped Pecans

CRUST:
Beat butter, flour, 1/2 cup sugar and salt with mixer until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press crumbs into bottom of well-greased 14-1/2” x 11” pan (15”x10”x1” will also work). Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.

FILLING:
Microwave corn syrup and 6 ounces chocolate in a large bowl on HIGH for 2-1/2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring once after 1-1/2 minutes, then stirring again until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Add beaten eggs, vanilla and remaining 1-1/2 cups sugar and mix well. Stir in pecans. Pour chocolate mixture over WARM crust and spread evenly.
Bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit or until filling is firm around the edges but still slightly soft in center. Cool completely. Melt remaining 2 ounces of chocolate and drizzle over top. Cut bars after chocolate is set.

***NOTE: You can line the pan with well-greased foil, leaving ends long to use as handles, to lift cooled bars from pan for easier cutting. If you grease the pan well enough though, this is not necessary. If you use foil, remove it before cutting the bars.
