    1/2 c  Butter, sweet 
    1/2 c  Sugar, dark brown 
      1 c  Flour, all-purpose 
      1 c  Pecan halves 
      2    Eggs 
      1 c  Sugar, dark brown

  Preheat oven to 375 F.  In food processor, combine first three 
  ingredients with the metal blade until crumbly.  This can also be 
  done with two knives or a pastry cutter.  Pat this crust into a 
  buttered 9" x 13" pan.  Bake for 10 minutes.  Cool. 
   
  When crust is cool, spread pecans evenly over surface.  Beat eggs with 
  brown sugar until thick.  Add vanilla.  Put salt and baking powder in 
  the bottom of a 1/4 cup measure; fill the rest of the measure with 
  flour. Stir into the egg mixture.  Pour over crust.  Sprinkle 
  chocolate chips evenly over mixture.  Bake at 375 F. for 20 minutes 
  or until center is baked.  Cool, then cut into 32 pieces.
