1 + ½ sticks unsalted butter (cold and diced)
-
¼ cup sugar
-
¼ cup finely chopped pecans
-
4 Tbsp ice-cold water

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 13 x 9 inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray the sides with nonstick spray.

Combine the flour, butter, and sugar in a bowl fitted with a stand mixer or hand mixer. Beat on medium speed until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chopped pecans and ice-cold water until the mixture starts to stick together.

Press the crust mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are a light golden brown.
