Ingredients
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, softened
¾ cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs, room temperature
2 Tablespoons bourbon
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease and flour a baking pan, about 11-by-10-inches. (I couldn't find that size but had one close enough).
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In bowl of electric mixer, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Separate 2 of the eggs. Add yolks one at a time, then 1 whole egg, beating well. Stir in bourbon and vanilla. Beat in dry ingredients until mixed, then spread mixture in prepared pan.
Beat the 2 egg whites until frothy. Add brown sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Spread over dough in pan. Sprinkle with nuts.
Bake for 20 minutes. Cool, then cut into bars.
