Ingredients:
Base:3/4 cup margarine, softened 3/4 cup powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 tablespoons evaporated milk 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 cups flour Pecan halves Filling: 28 Kraft caramels 1/4 cup evaporated milk 1/4 cup margarine 1 cup powdered sugar 1 cup chopped pecans Frosting: 6 ounces chocolate chips 1/3 cup evaporated milk 2 tablespoons margarine 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
Cream margarine and powdered sugar; add vanilla, milk and salt. Mix well. Blend in flour; work into a dough. Chill 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roll dough on floured surface, half at a time into a 12 x 18 inch rectangle. Cut into 2 inch squares. Bake at 325 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes until lightly browned. Cool, top with 1 teaspoon filling, 1/2 teaspoon frosting, then a pecan half. ( I just kind of mound filling and frosting in center of cookie.)For filling: Combine caramels and milk in a heavy saucepan. Melt over low heat. Remove from heat; stir in remaining ingredients. For frosting: Melt chips with milk over low heat. Remove from heat; stir in remaining ingredients. (A bit of work, but well worth it. These keep well several days at room temperature. | |
