Make this crunchy Pecan Pie Bark when you want dessert without the fuss of baking a full pie. This simple recipe uses a graham cracker base for a buttery, sweet, and addictive holiday candy treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups pecan halves, lightly toasted
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Line an 11×17 inch baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil. Let it boil for exactly 1 minute without stirring. Remove from heat immediately.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and toasted pecans. Pour the hot sugar mixture over the crumbs and pecans. Stir quickly until everything is evenly coated.
  6. Spread this pecan mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Press it down lightly with a spatula.
  7. Place the chocolate chips over the warm pecan layer. Let them sit for 5 minutes to soften.
  8. Spread the softened chocolate chips evenly over the top layer.
  9. Place the sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the bark is completely firm.
  10. Once set, break the Pecan Pie Bark into irregular, shareable shards. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Toast the pecans lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes before using them. This deepens their flavor.
  • If you do not have graham cracker crumbs, you can crush whole graham crackers in a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
  • For a richer flavor, substitute milk chocolate chips for semi-sweet chocolate chips.
