1 stick butter
3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
9 squares graham crackers
1/4 c. chopped pecans

Put 1 tablespoon butter in 8" square microwave dish and microwave at high for 1 minute. Tilt dish to distribute butter evenly. Place graham crackers over bottom of dish, cutting to fit if necessary. Put remaining butter and brown sugar in 1 quart microwave bowl and microwave at high for 45 seconds to 1 minute just until mixture can be stirred together. Spoon mixture over crackers, and sprinkle with peanuts. Microwave at high for 3 1/2 to 5 minutes rotating dish every 1/2 minute if necessary, until all areas of the top are boiling.

Watch bars carefully during approximately the last minute of microwaving to be sure they don't burn (depending on your oven, bars can brown quickly in spots). Re-distribute nuts if necessary, cut in squares, cool. Makes about 16 squares.
