Before trying this recipe I read everyone's reviews and made the following changes... First I sprayed the bottom of my pan liberally before baking,then I made up my filling and decided that it did not look like enough when I spread it on the crust so I made a second batch but I did not quite double amount of pecans. I baked it until the center was set (I am not sure exactly how long that was but at least 35- 40 minutes - I kept checking it every 5 minutes to see if it was set).

These looked so good on TV. But have a question before I try the recipe. Do you use dark corn syrup and dark brown sugar? I think it would make a lot of difference in the flavor of the bars. Can someone help me out?

My family loves these and they are gone very quickly. I have also taken them to work and given the recipe out to many.

Very disappointed. The center pieces come out soggy. Then ends and sides taste great. I tried this recipe 3 times to and changed things to see if it would come out right. Didn't happen! Won't try the 4th time.
