• 3/4 C. butter
• 3 C. packed light brown sugar
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 3 C. chopped pecans
• 3 C. self-rising flour

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13-inch pan, or for thinner bars, use a 10x15-inch jellyroll pan. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir the eggs and vanilla into the brown sugar and butter. Mix in the chopped pecans, and then the flour. Spread evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Allow to cool before cutting into bars.
