Best Ever Pecan Pie Bars takes the amazing pecan pie and transforms it into irresistible bars. A buttery shortbread crust that gets topped with a caramel pecan glaze, these are perfect for feeding a crowd!
Preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 inch pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper leaving a 2 inch overhang.
Make the crust by creaming together the butter and brown sugar until fluffy in a stand mixer. Add in the flour and salt and mix until crumbly. Press the crust into your 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
While the crust is baking, prepare the filling by combining the butter, brown sugar, honey and heavy cream and vanilla in a medium sized saucepan. Stir over medium heat for about a minute and stir in the chopped pecans.
Remove the hot crust from the oven and pour the pecan filling on top spreading it over the surface.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Let the bars cool completely before cutting. Lift the bars out with the foil and peel the foil off the bars. Slice and serve. Store in an airtight container.
