Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10x15-inch jellyroll pan.
-
Combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in 1 cup of butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle mixture evenly over the prepared pan and press in firmly to make a crust.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, mix corn syrup, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs, 3 tablespoons melted butter, and vanilla together in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in chopped pecans; spread filling evenly over baked crust as soon as it comes out of the oven.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until filling is set, about 25 minutes. Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into bars.
