3/4 cup cold butter or margarine

FOR CRUST: In a medium mixing bowl stir together the flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Cut in butter or margarine till crumbly. Press mixture evenly into the bottom of a 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 10 minutes.

Stir together the half-and-half or light cream, coffee crystals, and vanilla till coffee crystals dissolve. Stir into pecan mixture. Spread mixture evenly over hot crust.
