I recently baked these Pecan Chewies for a family birthday party. This is an incredibly easy recipe with lots of big flavor. No need to pull out the electric mixer as it’s best to mix this recipe by hand. The combination of butter, pecans and brown sugar provide a mouthful of chewy goodness you won’t easily forget.
Ingredients
1 cup butter, melted
2 cups light brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup pecans, chopped
2 teaspoons powdered sugar optional, for dusting
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Melt butter on stove top or microwave oven.
Combine brown sugar and flour in large mixing bowl. Add the slightly cooled melted butter and thoroughly combine. Add vanilla, eggs and pecans, stirring until well mixed.
Evenly pat mixture into baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into bars. Optional: dust with powdered sugar
