The original amount is listed first. After the recipe, is my cut-down of the recipe. We do not need 6-8 dozen bars for 2 people. (g)
6 cups all-purpose Flour
1-1/2 cups Sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 cups Cold Butter (NO substitutes!)
Filling:
8 Eggs
3 cups Sugar
3 Cups Corn Syrup
1/2 cup Butter, melted
3 tsp Vanilla Extract
5 cups Pecans, chopped
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Cut in better until crumbly. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of two greased/buttered 15" x 10" x 1" baking pans. Bake at 350°F for 18-22 minutes or until crust edges are beginning to brown and bottom is set.
Do not turn off the oven just yet! You are not done!
For Filling:
Combine the eggs, sugar, corn syrup, butter and vanilla in a large bowl; mix well. Stir in pecans. Pour over crust.
Bake 25-30 minutes longer or until edges are firm and center is almost set. Cool on wire racks. Cut into bars.
Refrigerate until serving. Yield: 6-8 dozen.
Note: We nuke some warm and eat with vanilla ice cream, or as-is.
