Ingredients

• For the Crust:
• 11/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
• Filling:
• 3 large eggs
• 3/4 cup corn syrup
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 Tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 13/4 cups coarsely chopped semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (or chocolate chunks in a bag!)
• 11/2 cups chopped pecans

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. For the crust, mix together the flour, butter and brown sugar until crumbly. Press into the baking pan and bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly brown.
3. For the filling, beat the eggs, corn syrup, sugar, butter and vanilla extract with a wire whisk. Stir in the chunks and pecans. Pour evenly over the baked crust and bake for 25-30 minutes or until set.
4. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. Cool completely and cut into bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature (or in the refrigerator if you live in a warm/humid area with no air conditioning).
