Every Thanksgiving I yearn for Pecan Pie . this is the closest I have come to experiencing that taste minus the eggs . These bars are somewhat delicate to cut into once baked . I have found creating a sleeve of foil makes a fast job of removing the cookie out of the baking tray . Make sure the cookie is completely cool before cutting into squares .
Makes about 28 squares
