A) Glaze recipe from Land O Lakes; Stir together 1 cup powdered sugar ,1 tsp vanilla and 1 1/2 Tbsp milk. Drizzle on cooled pan of bars prior to cutting into squares. The glaze is optional for these bars.
B) Toasted pecans; In a sauce pan melt 4 Tbsp butter , add 3 cups of pecan halves and stir over medium heat to coat and heat the nuts. Dump them on a cookie sheet and spread out in a single layer. Roast in a 300*f oven for 30 minutes. Remove and lightly salt with coarse salt if desired; cool completely and store in an air tight container. Coarsely chopped toasted pecans can be subbed for the raw nuts in these bars.
