Preheat your oven to 350F . Line an 8 inch by 8 inch pan with parchment paper.
Make the shortbread layer first. Combine all shortbread ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Then, press this mixture into an even layer in the pan.
Bake for 10 to 11 minutes or just barely golden.
While that is baking, get started on your pecan pie filling, except the pecans and salt.
Once the mixture thickens, turn the heat to low and let it simmer for 1 to 2 minutes.
When the crust is done, pour your pecans on top. Smooth into an even layer.
Next, bake for about 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let it cool!
Eat as is or top with a scoop of icrecream
