Cómo preparar Pecan Squares Ala The Barefoot Contessa Ina Garten
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Make the crust: In a mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes using an electric mixer with a paddle attachment).
- Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Press the dough evenly into an ungreased 18x12x1-inch baking sheet, creating a slightly raised edge.
- Sprinkle the dough and your hands lightly with flour to prevent sticking.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust is set but not browned.
- Let the crust cool completely.
- Make the pecan filling: In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, ¼ cup honey, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, and the zest of 1 lemon and 1 orange.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted.
- Increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup heavy cream and 2 cups pecan halves.
- Pour the filling evenly over the cooled crust, avoiding the edges.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set completely.
- Cut into bars and dip one end in melted chocolate (optional).
- Serve and enjoy!
