Ingredients
2 cups all purpose flour, sifted 1/2 cup butter, melted 1 cup light brown sugar, packedDirections
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a 3 Qt. mixing bowl, combine crust ingredients. Mix at medium speed, scraping sides of bowl often, 2-3 minutes or until well mixed and particles are fine.
Pat firmly into ungreased 13x9x2 inch pan. Sprinkle pecans evenly over unbaked crust. Prepare caramel layer (see below); pour evenly over pecans and crust.
