#2. Have not one ounce of will-power

#3. or..... you do not like pecan pie.  (it's very similar in taste)

Pecan Pie Bars

Crust:

3 cups flour

1/4 C plus 2 tbsp. sugar

3/4 C. softened butter or margarine

3/4 tsp. salt

Filling:

4 eggs, slightly beaten

1 1/2 C. sugar

1 1/2 C. Corn Syrup

3 tbsp. melted butter or margarine

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

2 1/2 C. chopped pecans

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease 15 1/2 X 10 inch pan.

Beat four, sugar, butter or margarine and salt into a large bowl.

Press into greased pan and bake for 20 minutes.

Mix all of the filling ingredients except pecans until well blended.  Stir in pecans.

Pour over baked layer & spread evenly.  Bake for 25 minutes or until filling is set.

Let cool and cut into 1 1/2 inch squares.  This is a super duper sweet dessert.  So, less is probably best.
