Ingredients
1 cup flour2 tsp baking powder3/4 tsp salt-----------------------------6 Tbsp butter, soft1 cup sugar3/4 cup brown sugar, packed 2 tsp vanilla2 eggs-----------------------------5.5 oz pecan pieces (about 1 1/3 cup)10 oz white chocolate chips (about 1 2/3 cup)
Directions
1---Mix together flour, baking powder, and salt.
2---In separate bowl, blend together butter, sguars, eggs, and vanilla.
3---Begin preheating oven to 325.
4---Mix flour and sugar mixtures until blended. Batter will be thick. Fold in pecans and white chocolate chips.
5---Grease a 9" by 13" pan. Pour batter into pan and level.
6---Bake 25-35 minutes, depending on how dark you want the bars. Bars are cooked when a toothpick inserted 2" from the edge comes out clean. ==Note: a hard, brittle crust forms on top long before the bars are done, so insert toothpick by "drilling" the tip through the crust (twisting it between your fingers).==
7---Cool bars before slicing; slightly warm is best for cutting. Use a sharp, serrated knife.
---If removing edges, cut about 1/2" from edges, all the way around, then slice six times each way to make 36 slices.
---If not removing edges, slice the short side into 4 long lengths, then slice the long side into 11 short lengths (start from corner and slice between every 1 1/8" and 1 1/4" inch).
