For an even richer flavor, lightly toast the chopped pecans before adding them to the filling. Ensure the crust is slightly golden before adding the filling to prevent a soggy base. To achieve clean cuts, refrigerate the bars for at least 30 minutes after cooling before slicing. Store the pecan pie bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

May 5, 2025The crust was a little crumbly for me, but the filling was perfect. I might try adding an egg yolk to the crust next time.
