For some reason mine turned out really dry and crispy like a cracker. I didn't add any pecans because I didn't have any at home with me. I think the thing I did wrong was I used a 9x12 inch pan because that was my smallest one. I will try it again with either a smaller pan or I'd have to leave it in the oven for 10 minutes instead of 20 minutes.
