Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
- 1.5 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until the dough comes together into a soft, crumbly texture.
Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan to form the base layer. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
While the shortbread base is baking, prepare the topping. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips, stirring constantly until smooth and creamy.
Once the shortbread base is out of the oven, evenly sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top while still warm.
Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the pecans, spreading it evenly with a spatula to cover the entire surface.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the pan. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the sheet out of the pan before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
