Pecan Squares by: A Friend
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) Butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
Pinch of Salt
2 cups Flour
1 large Egg, beaten
1 1/2 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
3/4 cup Honey

Directions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine 3/4 cup butter, powdered sugar and salt in processor. Process until moist clumps begin to form. Add flour and egg and process just until dough forms.
Press dough onto bottom and 3/4 of an inch up the sides of 13x9x2 baking pan. Bake until crust is golden brown, about 22 minutes. Cool crust slightly. Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees.
