Ingredients
- 1 package of premium yellow or butter cake mix
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1 can of Eagle Brand Milk sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup of high-quality softened butter
- 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup of freshly chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup of Heath Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits
Instructions
-
Preparation: Begin by setting your oven to preheat at a temperature of 350°F (175°C).
-
Crust Formation: In a sizeable mixing bowl, amalgamate the cake mix with one of the eggs and the specified amount of butter. Utilize a fork to integrate until the mixture reaches a crumbly texture. Firmly press this mixture onto the base of a 9×13 inch baking pan, which has been previously greased for ease of release.
-
Toffee-Pecan Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the condensed milk, the second egg, and a splash of vanilla extract. Ensure these ingredients are blended seamlessly. Subsequently, fold in the toffee bits and chopped pecans, ensuring even distribution. Pour this luscious mixture over the previously prepared crust.
-
Baking: Position the pan in the preheated oven and allow it to bake for approximately 30 minutes. You’ll notice the edges adopting a golden-brown hue. While the center might retain a slight jiggle, ensure you refrain from overbaking.
-
Cooling and Serving: Once baked to perfection, remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool thoroughly. Upon reaching room temperature, segment them into individual bars and serve.
Notes
It is of paramount importance to allow the bars to cool completely. This not only solidifies the structure but also amplifies the flavors. Enjoy your Toffee Pecan Dream Bars with a beverage of choice.
