Lazy Girl Pecan Pie Bars

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish to ensure the bars come out easily once cooked.

2. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and granulated sugar. Use a pastry cutter to cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, similar to sand.

3. Press this crumbly mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, forming a solid crust that will hold the filling.

4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. The crust should be lightly golden, setting the stage for the tremendous filling.

5. In another bowl, whisk together the light corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

6. Once combined, stir in the chopped pecans, distributing them evenly throughout the filling.

7. Pour the pecan mixture over the baked crust, smoothing it out gently for an even distribution.

9. Allow the bars to cool in the dish before cutting them into squares or rectangles.
