Ingredients

  • 1 cups all-purpose flour (120 grams)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (113 grams)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter , cut into one inch cubes (113 grams)
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter , melted (170 grams)
  • ½ cup honey (170 grams)
  • ⅓ cup packed light or dark brown sugar (66 grams)
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 3 ½ cups pecans , roughly chopped (395 grams)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and line with parchment paper, if desired.
  • Mix the flour and sugar together in a bowl. Add the cubed butter and cut into the flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until the butter is the size of small peas. Press into the prepared baking dish and bake until it just starts to turn golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  • In another bowl, mix together the melted butter, honey, brown sugar, and cream. Add the pecans and stir until all the pecans are coated. Pour on top of the baked crust and spread evenly. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes.
  • Cool completely before slicing.
