This tastes good, but does not make enough filling. I would double the filling to makes this really good.

I think they tasted delicious but they really were difficult to remove from the pan even though I used parchment paper, and they took atleast 15 min longer to bake, they also didn't look anything like the picture ;But I think I'm gonna try making them once again hopefully I'll have better luck next time

I made these in a smaller square pan and baked them for 5 mins longer at the end. The bars were thick and chewy. I could see adding a teaspoon of instant coffee or cocoa to the filling.. They are really good, and easy to make. Be sure to cut them while still slightly warm, it is much easier to do then. If you can manage to save them until then, the pecan flavor is much more pronounced on the 2nd day...
