Basically, these bake into chewy, gooey bars. Not really a pie or a cake but the taste is remarkably similar to Derby Pie. I loved them because they are simple and serve a lot of people. They will definitely be part of my derby celebration.
Ingredients:
1 (18 ounce) box yellow cake mix or 1 (18 ounce) box butter recipe cake mix, 2-layer size
1 egg
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
3 eggs
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pecans, chopped
3/4 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Mix cake mix, 1 egg, and melted butter until well blended.
3. Reserve 2/3 cup of this batter.
4. Spread the rest of the batter into a greased and floured 9 x 13-inch pan and bake at 325 degrees F. for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
5. Mix reserved 2/3 cup batter with syrup, 3 eggs, brown sugar, vanilla, pecans and chocolate chips. Pour this filling on top of crust and cook about 50 to 60 minutes.
