Recipe Introduction
Sometimes described as a "turtle" bar, this decadent bar is special yet incredibly easy to make.
Crust Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter, softened
1 cup pecan halves
Caramel Layer Ingredients:
2/3 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup milk chocolate chips (We recommend NESTLÈ® TOLL HOUSE® Milk Chocolate Morsels)
Heat oven to 350°F. Combine all crust ingredients except pecans in large mixer bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed and particles are fine (2 to 3 minutes).
Press on bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Place pecans evenly over unbaked crust.
Combine 2/3 cup butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until entire surface of mixture begins to boil. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour evenly over pecans and crust.
Bake for 18 to 22 minutes or until entire caramel layer is bubbly. Remove from oven. Immediately sprinkle with chips; allow to melt slightly (2 to 3 minutes). Swirl chips leaving some whole for a marbled effect.
Cool completely; cut into bars.
Makes 36 bars.
