Made this this weekend. They are yummy. I think the original title of this recipe is Pecan Cream Cheese Squares. I found it in the February/March 2000 issue of Taste of Home. It was submitted by Dorothy Pritchett who says, "This rich, easy dessert is perfect after a light meal." I made it with chopped mixed nuts instead of just pecans, and it turned out well. Got many comments. -
These are pretty dang good! Reminiscent of 'ooey gooey' bars, the crunch from the pecans added some nice texture! I followed the recipe, as directed; thanks for sharing a great recipe, weekend cooker!
