Doris Barling gave me this recipe in the early 80s. It tastes like pecan pie, cuts in squares like brownies. It’s a really easy thing to make and carry with you somewhere. And always a hit!
For the crust:
one yellow cake mix
1/3 cup oil
one egg
Grease the baking pan and press the mixture into the bottom. Sometimes I use a 9x13 pan, today I used a jelly roll pan which is a bit bigger but more shallow.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
While it is baking mix together:
1 cup white Karo syrup
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups chopped pecans (I toast mine first)
Pour over the half baked crust and return to oven for 40-45 minutes
Doris was a fabulous cook. Every time I did her hair, we talked recipes. I have several she gave me but this one is the most often used.
