Pecan Pie Bars

Jodies Kitchen Pecan Pie Bars

One of my Families Favorites.

My Mom made some of these for everyone,and of course I had to have the recipe.

 

Warning these are Addictive,very rich as well.I do recommend using real butter and not substituting that because the rich buttery flavor really comes out in these.This is an older pic from a batch I had made a Christmas one year.

 

 

The crust is the only thing you may not be sure about when making these so I provided a pic for you.
