I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Preheat oven to 180⁰C. Grease and line a 4 cm deep, 21 cm x 30 cm slice pan with baking paper, allowing the paper to extend slightly over the edges on the longer sides.
Place flour, sugar and salt into the TM bowl and mix for 5 seconds on speed 5. Add butter and process for 12 seconds on speed 6, or until the mixture resembles damp sand.
Tip mixture into the pan and pat out evenly over the base. Roll a small glass over the base to smooth it. Bake base for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Towards the end of baking time, make the topping. Melt butter for 2 minutes at 60⁰C on speed 4. Add sugar, honey, cream and salt, mix for 5 seconds on speed 4 then heat for 4 minutes at 90⁰C on speed 2.
Remove base from oven and stand for 1-2 minutes.
Add pecans and vanilla to topping mixture, then combine for 30 seconds on Reverse + speed soft. Spread pecan mix evenly over base.
Bake for 16-18 minutes or until topping is bubbling and deep golden. Place the pan on a rack to cool completely.
Using a hot knife, loosen the edges of the slice and slice in the pan (or lever the whole slab out onto a board and slice).

This is a great recipe, so tasty, everyone loves it. I do cook the base longer until its browner, as its quite soft otherwise, I like crunch. I also roast the pecans (I use about half the amount of pecans), about 15 mins in the oven and add some brown sugar when they come out, then push them into the topping, rather than mix into the topping in the thermy. Absolutely fantastic.
This recipe was so easy to make and really delicious! (Although I baked for too long but not the recipe's fault!) I have my own Pecan trees but got sick (sore hands) from shelling them so made up the difference with some cashews. Yummy!
A M A Z I N G !!! And so easy to make. Pecans were the perfect nut for this slice! Thanks for sharing. Everyone loved it and wanted the recipe!
