Who says you need to spend hours in the kitchen to whip up a dessert that’ll have everyone talking? Not me, folks! These Lazy Pecan Pie Bars are my go-to when I’m craving that classic Southern pecan pie flavor but want to skip the whole pie-crust-from-scratch ordeal. Originating from the beloved pecan pie, just in bar form, they’re the perfect shortcut to homemade without skimping on taste. Picture it: a buttery shortbread crust, topped with a gooey filling bursting with pecans…yum! Pull these out for your next potluck or family get-together and watch them disappear!
Ice cream—vanilla, to be specific—takes these pecan pie bars from outstanding to ‘outta this world’! And hey, if you’re feeling extra indulgent, a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce just turn the indulgence up a notch. Or, simply pair with a strong cup of coffee or tea for a cozy afternoon treat.
