Pecan Pie Bars:

Crust:

1/2 cup butter

1/4 cup Crisco-(shortening)

3/4 cup Confectioners Sugar

1-1/2 cups flour

Combine the butter and Crisco in a large mixing bowl, and beat until creamy. Add the confectioners sugar and mix well. Add flour and mix until incorporated. This makes a very stiff dough. Press the dough evenly in the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of an ungreased 9X13 pan. Bake in a preheated 350* oven for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Filling:

3 eggs

1-1/2 cups dark brown sugar, packed

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. baking powder

3 T. flour

1 cup chopped pecans

In medium bowl, combine all of the filling ingredients. Stir gently with a fork, until well blended, do not beat. Add the pecans. Pour filling over the hot crust and spread evenly. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool and cut into squares.
