Pecan Pie Bars

If you are a pecan fan then today is your day for sure.

Although these pecan pie bars are not pies they are so yummy that it doesn’t even matter. I actually like them even better.

Ingredients

• 1 can 8 oz crescent rolls
• 2 tbsp butter melted
• 1/2 cup corn syrup
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and spray 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray (or use nonstick pan)
2. Lay out the crescent rolls into 2 long rectangles and place in your pan; press evenly over the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides. It doesn't have to be perfect!
3. Press around the perforations to seal the dough.
4. Bake 8 minutes.
5. While baking combine the butter, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla and egg until mixed well.
6. Stir in pecans.
7. Spread evenly over the partially baked crust.
8. Bake 18-20 minutes or until filling is golden brown.
9. Let cool approximately 1 hour before cutting.

My husband loves pie but he isn’t a fan of pie crusts so these pecan bars made with crescent rolls are perfect for having a light crust option. Plus it makes these simple and quick. It is a pecan pie in a bite-sized bar.
