Instructions

Prep and make shortbread base
1
  • Grease an 8x8-inch metal baking tin with butter, then line the base and sides with parchment paper leaving a 2-inch overhang. (NOTE: This will help you remove the squares from the tin later on). Press down on the parchment to adhere. Set aside.
  • Melt 8 tbsp butter in a small microwave-safe bowl.
  • Reserve 1 tsp flour in another small bowl.
  • Add remaining flour, cornstarch, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt to a medium bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Stir in melted butter until shortbread mixture is crumbly and holds together when squeezed.
  • Press shortbread mixture into the bottom of the prepared tin. (TIP: Use the back of a measuring cup to help smooth out the shortbread mixture.)
Bake shortbread base
2
  • Bake shortbread base in the middle of the oven until lightly golden-brown around the edges, 15-18 min.
  • Place tin on a wire rack to cool.

  • While base bakes, melt 2 tbsp butter in the same microwave-safe bowl.
  • Whisk together melted butter, remaining brown sugar, reserved flour and maple syrup in the same medium bowl (from step 1) until smooth.
  • Whisk in eggs, vinegar and 1/4 tsp salt until smooth. Stir in pecans.
  • Pour filling over shortbread base.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips over top.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until middle is set, and edges are golden-brown, 22-23 min
Chill and serve
4
  • Place baking tin in the freezer until completely cool, 1-1.5 hr.
  • Run a sharp knife around the edges of the tin, then remove by pulling on the parchment paper.
  • Slice into squares and serve.
