Sorry, but this recipe did not work for me. The crust was way too sticky and the syrup mixture sank to the bottom after pouring it on the crust (maybe cooling the crust first would have helped or not pre-cooking it all?). The edges were overdone, but the middle was undercooked. Although they were a mess, they were still edible. However, I felt there was something missing with the flavor. I hardly ever give a recipe a bad review, but I just did not like this one.

Delicious, easy and lives up to the positive reviews. My only change was to increase pecans to 2 cups. Will definitely make again!

This recipe is just ok. The cake mix tast was a little overwhelming. Also, needs more pecans.

Great tasting bars. I ended up using about a cup and a half of pecans to cover the top better. These were very easy to make.

Awesome recipe! I made for Thanksgiving, and everybody loved them. I am not a fan of pecan pie - too sugary, too gooey, too rich - but the bars have the same flavor and are just right. I used more like 3 cups of pecans - just coated the top until it looked thick and good. Turned out really well, I'd recommend it - I can't imagine them with only 1 cup of pecans.

Mmmm. I used butter pecan cake mix instead of yellow and I believe this made them even more d-lish! Yes, the bottom crust was difficult to spread and pat into the pan but it did work. I allowed mine to cool some before I put the filling on top. The filling wasn't done in 35 minutes. As every oven temp differs, mine took 45 minutes until the center no longer jiggled when I shook the pan. I took the advice of others and allowed it to cool then I put them in the fridge over night to harden some so it can cut easier as they are gooey/creamy in the midddle (yummy). A very good peacan bar. THX

Very good. They do, indeed, taste like pecan pie to me. For whatever reason, I am not the biggest fan of sweet stuff, but I love pecan pie, and these are excellent and easy. I used white cake mix bc I didn't have yellow, and I used 1 1/4 c of brown sugar with about 3 or 4 tbspoons of water to achieve one cup of dark corn syrup. I did add a bit more brown sugar and water since this recipe called for a bit more than 1 c of corn syrup. I was making other cookies at the time that called for a 375 oven, so I used that and just monitored very carefully. The temp was just fine; was done in about 30 minutes. I agree with the other reviewer who mentioned it is important to make sure that the cookies are no longer jiggly before pulling out. They are very gooey and rich but hold together well. Very easy and very good. I put them in the refrigerator prior to attempting to cut. My only complaint is that I used my pizza cutter to cut them and managed to break the pizza cutter in the process. However, it was a cheap pizza cutter and I do have another, so very little damage was done. Thanks for the recipe!
