Instructions
Making Pecan Pie Bark is effortless when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Pecan Mixture: In a bowl, combine the pecan halves and graham cracker crumbs. Stir to mix and set aside.
3. Melt Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
4. Add Sweeteners: Once the butter is melted, stir in brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is well combined and begins to bubble.
5. Whisk Eggs: Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Gradually add the egg mixture to the butter mixture, stirring continuously until fully blended.
6. Combine Mixtures: Add the vanilla extract, then stir in the pecan and graham cracker mixture until everything is evenly coated.
7. Transfer to Baking Sheet: Pour the mixture onto the lined baking sheet and spread it out evenly.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
9. Melt Chocolate: While the bark cools, melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler until smooth.
10. Spread Chocolate: Once the bark has cooled slightly, pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread evenly with a spatula.
11. Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least one hour to allow the chocolate to set completely.
12. Slice: Once set, remove from the fridge and slice the bark into squares or desired shapes.
Following these steps will result in a delightful Pecan Pie Bark that everyone will love!
