How to Make Easy Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 ounces) chocolate cake mix, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, and 2 large eggs. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press half of the chocolate mixture into the prepared pan to form the crust.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup light corn syrup, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  5. Stir in 2 cups pecan halves.
  6. Pour the pecan mixture over the chocolate crust.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining chocolate mixture over the top of the pecan filling, swirling gently with a knife or toothpick.
  8. Bake for 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  9. Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
