Recipe of the Month
(What's Cooking)

 

 

Butter Pecan Bars  From: Rehab. Dept.Makes 24 bars     20 minutes prep time     35 to 45 minutes baking timePreheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare a 9” square baking dish with cooking spray.Think of a slice of the richest pecan pie you ever tasted, and you’ll begin to see the wisdom of a shortbread base with a rich buttery pecan topping. Don’t substitute margarine the loss in flavor is too great! Shortbread Crust1/2 cup unsalted butter  1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar  1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour             1/8 tsp. Salt To make crust, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour and salt in the food processor bowl fitted with the steel blade. Process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Dump this mixture into prepared dish and press down lightly with back of large spoon. Bake in preheated oven till crust is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Cinnamon-Pecan Topping1 cup packed dark brown sugar   2 large eggs  1 tsp. Vanilla extract  2 tbsp. Unbleached all-purpose flour1/2 tsp. Baking powder  1 tsp. Ground cinnamon      1/4 tsp. Salt  2 cups chopped pecans In the food processor bowl fitted with steel blade, combine brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Process until thoroughly mixed and aerated, about 1 minute. Add chopped pecans and pulse twice to mix them in.  Pour topping onto crust, smooth evenly, reduce oven temp. to 350 degrees and bake until browned. 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven, cool and cut into bars. Store in a tin. Alternately, instead of 2 cups of chopped pecans, you can use a cup of pecans and a cup of sweetened shredded coconut. Once the bars are out of the oven, you can dust the tops with sifted, powdered sugar. This shortbread base is so good, it can be used for other things. Use your imagination.  ENJOY!
