- Beat the butter, confectioners' sugar, granulated sugar, salt and vanilla until combined, then beat on high until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Whisk the flour and baking soda, add to the mixer and beat until combined. Add the ground pecans and mix them into the dough.
- Press the dough evenly into the pan, bringing it slightly up the sides. Bake on the centre rack for 20 minutes.
- Whisk the brown sugar, flour, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. Add the melted butter, maple syrup, honey, vanilla, cream and eggs and whisk until smooth. Fold in the chopped pecans.
- Pour the topping over the crust as soon as it comes out of the oven, then bake for another 35-45 minutes. It is ready when the sides are fully set and the centre is mostly set with a slight jiggle. Do not overbake.
- Cool completely, then carefully lift the bars out of the pan, slice and serve.
