Pecan Dream Bars

I found this recipe one fall from a Paula Deen Magazine. It tastes wonderful! So close to eating Pecan pie. I have never found the almond brickle chips, so I have substituted white chocolate chips or milk, or semi-sweet chocolate chips. (I prefer the white). If any one knows where I can find Almond brickl chips...please let me know. I think that would make these irresistable.

makes 2 dozen

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar, divided
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
4 large eggs
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
1 (8 ounce) package almond brickle chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
Ina small bowl, combine flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. ( I use my mixer) Press mixure evenly into prepared pan. Bake 15 min.
In a medium bowl (mixer again) Combine eggs, remaining 1 cup of brown sugar, corn syrup and melted butter; stirring until smooth. Stir in vanilla, pecans and brickle chips. Pour over hot baked crust. Bake 30 min. or until set. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
