Hello Dolly Bars

I make this recipe all the time! Big hit every time. If I don't have pecans, I'll use walnut pieces. And sometimes for a more festive look, I'll add chopped marashino cherries. I also mix chocolate chips with butterscotch chips. It's a very versatile recipe that allows for many variations.
