Buttery Pecan Raisin Bars

   It's been a long time since I posted a blog.  Between the kids being on vacation, and going on a Disney Cruise with the family (I highly recommend the Disney Dream)  I have been to busy to cook. On that note,  I have accumulated several recipes which I will be preparing with in the next few weeks.   
   Now onto the recipe at hand.  Sinfully rich and delicious!  This recipe can be doubled and made into cookies.  Just bake 10-12 minutes.

Makes 12 bars

1/2 cup softened salted butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
1 1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup raisins or currants



  • Heat oven to 350 bake
  • Place parchment paper at the bottom of the pan (I sprayed cooking spray on the bottom and sides for good measure)
  • Cream together butter and sugar
  • Add and mix vanilla and egg
  • Sift in flour and baking powder
  • Once mixed, add pecans and raisins.  Mix thoroughly
  • Bake 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean
  • Wait until cool to cut
