PECAN BARS 
2/3 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2/3 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. light or dark corn syrup
1 tsp. vanilla
3 eggs
1 c. broken pecan pieces

Heat oven to 350°F. Mix sugar, butter, vanilla and egg in bowl. Stir in flour. Press dough in bottom and 1/2 inch up sides of ungreased 9 x 13 pan.

Bake until edges are light brown, about 10-15 minutes. Beat brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla and eggs with a spoon; stir in pecans. Pour over crust and bake until set, 25-30 minutes. Loosen edges from side of pan while warm. Cool completely and cut into bars about 1 1/2 by 2-inches. Cover and refrigerate any remaining bars.
