Turtle Cookie Bars

ADVERTISEMENT

1 cup pecan halves or chopped pecans
2/3 cup butter
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup milk chocolate morsels
Instructions:
Arrange 1 cup of pecan halves or chopped pecans evenly over the crust.
In a saucepan, combine 2/3 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of firmly packed brown sugar.
Bring this mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
Continue to cook for 3 minutes while stirring constantly.
Pour this delightful caramel mixture evenly over the pecans.
Bake your Turtle Cookie Bars at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-17 minutes or until they turn golden and bubbly.
Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle 1 cup of milk chocolate morsels over the top.
Allow the chocolate to stand for 2-3 minutes until it slightly melts. Then, gently swirl the chocolate with a knife, leaving some morsels whole (do not spread them entirely).
Let your Turtle Cookie Bars cool on a wire rack at room temperature until the chocolate sets.
Once they are set, cut them into squares, and your Turtle Cookie Bars are ready to be devoured.
