Make this simple, crunchy bark that tastes like pecan pie without the fuss of a traditional pie crust or baking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sleeve (about 14 sheets) graham crackers
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup pecan halves, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Arrange the graham crackers in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, breaking them slightly to fit if needed.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar and butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil. Continue boiling for exactly 1 minute, stirring gently.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the hot sugar mixture evenly over the graham crackers. Use a spatula to spread the mixture across the crackers.
  6. Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top of the sugar layer. Sprinkle with salt.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and the edges of the crackers are lightly browned.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the bark cool completely on the baking sheet at room temperature, about 1 hour, until firm.
  9. Once firm, break the bark into irregular pieces. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a sweeter, richer flavor, you can drizzle melted semi-sweet chocolate over the cooled bark before breaking it apart.
  • If you prefer a smoother toffee layer, use finely chopped pecans instead of halves.
  • This bark keeps well at room temperature for up to one week.
