Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. For the Spiced Crust, mix flour, confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until well blended. Add butter; beat with electric mixer on medium speed until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press firmly into an even layer in a foil-lined 13x9-inch baking pan.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
For the Pecan Topping, mix eggs, corn syrup, granulated sugar, butter, and vanilla in a large bowl until well blended. Stir in pecans. Pour over hot crust.
Bake for 25 minutes longer or until topping is slightly firm in the center. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
