My Mom passed away 3 years ago. At the last Thanksgiving dinner she was able to prepare, she made these pecan bars and everyone just raved over them. Mom was so proud of herself, and so was I. I've decided that this year I would try my hand at them and surprise my brothers. I'm giving this recipe 5 spoons before I ever even make them because they were so yummy when my Momma made them :)

This recipe is delicious and easy to make. The best part is that it tastes better on the second day than when it is fresh from the oven!

Very good. I would make them again, but I thought there was too much cookie and too little filling. I wouldn't hesitate to use half again the filling recipe.
