Pecan Bars

Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Beat cream cheese, 3/4 cup butter, granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons vanilla in large bowl with mixer until well blended. Add flour and baking soda; mix well. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

Press dough onto bottom of 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Meanwhile, melt remaining butter and pour into medium bowl. Add eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup and remaining vanilla. Mix well and stir in nuts.

Spread nut mixture over warm crust, then bake for additional 20 to 25 minutes - or until topping is firm around the edges but still soft in the center. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
