Crust
½ cup sugar
½ tsp salt
2 ½ cups flour
1 cup butter or margarine melted
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Prepare and bake cookie crust.  Spray 10 x 15 baking dish with Pam.  Mix sugar, flour, salt and butter until fine crumbs.  Press into pan.  Bake 20-30 min.  or until light brown. (Sometime I use refrigerated pie crust)

Bars
While crust is baking mix the following:

Beat:
4 large eggs
1 ½ tsp vanilla
3 Tbsp butter or margarine
1 ½ cups sugar
1 ½ cup Karo syrup

Stir in:
2 ½ cups pecans, chopped

Pour over crust and bake 30 minutes.  Allow the bars to cool before cutting.  A pizza cutter works well for cutting the bars Cut small because they are very rich.
