Pecan pie is a big deal in my home, especially during the holidays. I like to make at least 3 pecan pies for Thanksgiving, so that everyone can get plenty of pie, and I don’t have to worry about anyone fighting over the last piece. This year year, I plan on making a several sweet potato pies, 2 pecan pies, and two dishes of pecan pie bars. Yes. I will be baking my butt off!

Sweet and salty come together in this traditional pecan bars recipe

Within this post, I will be sharing my recipe for pecan pie bars. It’s a little time consuming, because it’s homemade, but I promise that it is so worth it!

The soft caramel toffee pecan filling in these pecan pie bars is sweet with a slight bite of salt

    Let me be the first to tell you that I don’t now and I never did like Pecan Pie but when I tasted your Pecan Bars I was totally taken back by how Delicious they were. Well now I will tell all of my friends who know me that Rosie’s Pecan Bars are a whole lot better. I’ve got to make this to share with my friends.

    My pecan pie bar is still slightly jiggly even after being in the oven for 30+ mins. is it ok for it to have a little jiggle or completely firm? Will it firm as it cools?

      It should firm up while cooling.
