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!
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!
Make and serve these pecan pie bars at your next event, and back, and watch the compliments roll in!

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?
Rosie says
It should firm up while cooling.
