I make this for my family and they always say it is a treat. After I take the pecan slice out of the oven, even when it is still boiling hot, I turn around to see My Mum, Dad and sisters with a plate ready to eat.

Hahahaha that is so great to hear!
Melanie Formosa says
Could this slice be frozen for eating later?
Lucy says

Hi, I just made this slice but it seems a bit gooey and you can't pick up like a slice. Where did I go wrong?
Lizzie {Strayed Table} says
This pecan slice looks great, I don't own a thermomix however I reckon I could put it together the old fashioned way. Stopping by from Fabulous Foodie Friday.
Lauren says
I'm sure you can, would love to hear how it goes!

OMG -- I am SO into this recipe! Not sure why... but the idea of a slice is somehow less guilt-inducing than the pie concept. I have a party coming up this week-end and you have just sorted out my contribution! (slices are so much easier to serve as finger-food than pie!) Thanks again 🙂
