Everything is better with some chocolate. And these were sure amazing. A rich shortbread chocolate crust and a caramel pecan chocolate glaze on top. These are incredible.
Fall is my favorite time of the year. I especially love all of the fall baking that comes with it. Fall desserts are amazing. One of my favorite desserts are these Pecan Pie Bars. How can you now love a shortbread buttery crust with pecans and a caramel glaze coating on top? Now let’s take it to the next level and add some chocolate! 🙂

They are a perfect fall dessert and really amazing any time of the year. But I love how they remind me of a Pecan Pie. These were a huge hit with everyone and I know that you will love them too!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahreneheit. Prepare a 9 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a food processor, combine the flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and salt. Pulse until combined. And in the cold butter pieces and pulse again until the dough comes together.
Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan. Sprinkle the pecans over the crust followed by the chocolate chips.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt together the butter, brown sugar, cream, and vanilla over medium heat. Whisk until smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
Bake for 25 minutes. Allow the bars to completely cool before cutting into squares.
