About the Recipe: This recipe is amazing! When I saw that it doesn’t use any butter, oil, flavorings, or spices, I thought it would never work, but guess what, it did. The little brown sugar pecan squares bake, yielding a dense brownie-textured softness that makes them chewy, and sweet caramel delicious. The bonus is that they use very simple ingredients and don’t need any fancy frosting to create tasty, sweet snacks.
