Butter Pecan Turtle Bars

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------- --------------------------------
1 cup Coarsely chopped pecans about 4 oz.
1 1/2 cup Softened butter of Margarine --divided 3
Sticks)
2 cups Flour
2 cups Packed brown sugar --divided
1 cup Semisweet chocolate Chips .6 Oz.)

Makes 32 bars. They're gooey, they're crunchy, they're topped with
chocolate and they consist of just five ingredients. What more could you
want? Well, OK; they're not low-fat. This recipe was adapted slightly
from one in "My Mother's Southern Desserts," by James Villas.

Toast the pecans in a heavy frying pan over low heat, stirring
occasionally, for about 7 minutes, until they color slightly or begin to
become fragrant. Pour out of the hot pan into a dish. Preheat oven to 350
degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by 13-inch pan. Beat 1/2 cup of the butter in
the large bowl of an electric mixer, then beat in the flour and 1 1/2 cups
of the brown sugar, beating about 2 minutes and scraping the sides of the
bowl regularly, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Press the dough
into the bottom of the prepared pan, making an even, compressed layer (do
not press dough up the sides of the pan). Scatter the pecan pieces evenly
over this crust. In a small heavy saucepan, combine the remaining 1/2 cup
of brown sugar and the remaining 1 cup of butter. Stir constantly over
moderate heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Continue to cook,
stirring constantly, for 1 minute, then drizzle the mixture evenly over
the pecans. Bake about 20 minutes, until the top is bubbly. Remove from
oven and sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top. Return the pan to
the oven for 1 minute, then swirl a fork through the melted chips for a
decorative effect. Let cool completely, then cut into bars.
