Pecan Turtle Bars
Makes 2 dozen bars
2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/'2 cups brown sugar, packed, divided use
1/2 cup softened butter, plus (2/3) cup butter, divided use
1 cup chopped pecans, roasted
1 cup milk-chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine flour, one cup brown sugar, and one-half cup butter, blending until the mixture is the texture of cornmeal. Line bottom of a 13-by-9-inch pan with mixture, patting evenly to form crust. Sprinkle pecans over crust; set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt together two-thirds cup butter and one-half cup brown sugar; bring to a boil and boil for one minute, stirring constantly. Drizzle mixture evenly over crust. Bake until bubbly, 18 to 22 minutes. Remove from oven and promptly distribute chocolate chips over top; let chips melt, then spread them evenly to make a frosting. Let cool thoroughly and cut into two dozen bars.
Store in an airtight container, refrigerated if weather is warm.
