I can’t believe that it will be Christmas in 1 week! When planning what to do this week on the blog, I decided to make it a sweet treat week worth of recipes including pecan pie bark.
All of the recipe work great to give out as a last minute gift or are excellent if you need to take a dessert to a party. They all aren’t too time consuming and are all delicious.
So first up is a quick pecan pie bark. The base is a layer of graham crackers. Then comes a sugary sweet pecan layer. They are excellent for any pecan lover.
There was 1 thing I would change about this recipe though. Next time, I would chop up the pecan halves instead of leaving them whole. They didn’t distribute evenly enough across all of the bark. Chopping the pecans would solve this.
I do think that I may also try brown sugar in place of the white sugar next time to see if you get more of that caramel-like flavor that you get from a pecan pie.
Here is what you need to make the
