Whip up easy and decadent chocolate caramel bars using a cookie mix.
Ingredients:
  • 1 egg
  • 1 pouch (17.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
  • 24 caramels, unwrapped
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 3/4 cup pecan halves
  • 3 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon shortening
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Combine cookie mix, butter, egg, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans in a medium bowl until a soft dough forms. Press the dough evenly into an ungreased 8-inch square pan. Bake for 28 to 33 minutes until golden brown.
  • In a 1-quart saucepan, gently heat caramels and milk together over low heat, stirring often, until the mixture is melted and smooth. Take off the heat.
  • Evenly coat warm bars with luscious melted caramels and top with crunchy pecan halves. Allow to cool thoroughly on a wire rack for approximately 1 hour.
  • Place chocolate chips and shortening in a small microwavable bowl. Microwave them uncovered on High for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until completely melted and smooth. Drizzle the mixture over the bars and allow it to set for about 30 minutes. Cut the bars into 4 rows by 4 rows.
