½ cup sugar             1 ½ cups Karo syrup
1 cup butter            1 ½ cups sugar
½ tsp salt              3 T. butter, melted
                        1 ½ tsp vanilla
                        2 ½ cups chopped pecans

Grease bottom and sides of 15x10x1 inch pan.  Prepare crust:  In large bowl with mixer at medium speed beat flour, sugar, butter and salt until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; press firmly and evenly into pan.  Bake at 350 20 minutes.  While crust is baking, prepare filling.  In large bowl stir eggs, Karo syrup, sugar, butter and vanilla until blended; stir in pecans.  Spread evenly over hot crust.  Bake at 350 25 minutes or until set.  Cool on wire rack.  Makes 48 bars.

*Note from Angie (Cantrell):  I use 9x13 pan and bake at 325 for longer than 25 minutes--watch to see when middle is almost set.  Original recipe called for margarine, I used butter and it was yummy.
