Caramel 'n Chocolate Pecan Bars

I love this cookie! It is so easy to make and so delicious. I prefer walnuts to pecans and I use milk chocolate chips.

I made this with my sister to take to a party and they were gone before we knew it! Many asked for the recipe, will definitely make again.

I have the original recipe from the inside of the Land O' Lakes butter box. It is requested by many for the holidays. I use milk chocolate chips as the original recipe calls for.

These cookie bars are fantastic and a big crowd pleaser. I have been making them for years. I add a pinch of salt to the crust and I sprinkle the top with a little sea salt before I bake. I also use 3/4 cup milk chocolate instead.

I prefer candy recipes to list a temperature. It's hard to know if you followed the directions as intended.
Reading the reviews, I put a 1.5x batch of the caramel (less than a double batch). I would definitely double it. It seemed like butter separated out of the caramel, so I might try the caramel with a little less butter next time. I thought the chocolate (I used semi-sweet chips) was a bit overpowering.

My mother started making these when I was a little girl (now 41). They are sooo incredibly good!! I make them now & they are super easy. I'll bring them to holiday parties & they are always 1 of the first things to go!

We love this recipe with walnuts.

Well, i think I did something wrong? I was not able to spread the caramel center over the entire crust is there something anybody could tell me to do different. Although it taste good i did not care for the presentation. I grew up baking since i was a young child and this seemed like a simple recipe but lacked in details. Is the caramel suppose to cover the entire crust?That should be listed in the instructions. I feel like i wasted my money in trying to make this and I am disappointed.

One of the best and easiest recipes I've ever made. I make these at least 4-5 times each Christmas. Make sure you add butterschotch chips for an even better taste!!

My husband's favorite. I modify it from an older LOL recipe that included butterscotch chips as well. Very good and very rich!!

My friends and I nicknamed these cookies the "crack bars" because they are like an addiction. So delicious. Making a batch on Saturday for a get together.

My co-worker made these for our company lunch and it's now one of my favorite bars. She did increase the caramel though. 1 cup butter and 3/4 cup brown sugar.
Yummy!

There was way too much dough for the base; It was also difficult to get out of the pan. I do not think this was worth making and did not meet my expectations of your recipes. A waste of time and ingredients.

thank goodness you have a website!. I was going through my mom's recipes and found this cut out from a butter wrapper. She had two of them but she cut the directions off. They are dated from
March and April 2001. I know she made these and they are good. My mother tended to write down ingredients for a recipe and not how to make it from there, because she knew, but I don't always know how. Thank you once again for your website, now I can continue to make these bars myself.

I have been making these bar cookies ever since Land O Lakes first came out with the recipe when I was a kid. They are awesome. Bonnie, start timing the brown sugar and butter the minute you see the very first bubble around the edges, that way you can't over cook it.

I must have done something wrong because mine came out so hard, they almost break your teeth when you bite into them. I followed the recipe exactly as written. Can someone tell me what went wrong?

These are positively the best cookies ever. The crust has a delicate crunch and the nuts and chocolate go perfectly with it. I have been making these cookies for years for the holidays and plan on continuing. Don't use cheap butter. Definitely use Land O Lakes.

This has become a family favorite. Works great
for parties with a few tweaks. I spread the
crust out very thin on a large baking sheet. I
then increase the caramel by 1.5 times to cover
and increase the chips to 2 cups. Whenever my
kids need to bring something to school the
revised recipe can fill a bucket with treats.

i found this on the box probably 20 years ago. It is my favorite cookie thatIi make at Charistmas. I make them every year.

These are my favorite cookie! I love that they are so easy to make. I have tried the recipe using walnuts and it's very good.
A+++++++

These have been a tradition in our house for many years. They are very easy and quick to make.

Few ingredients, easy to make and delicious. Made them twice for Thanksgiving get-togethers. I made them in a disposable pan that came with a plastic lid and they were very transportable.

This is one of those 'special occasion', always a hit recipe. I make this for fund raisers, holidays, and when I want to show off. I have made this recipe since I was a teen ager, so it's easy to make. So if you want to impress anyone, I would suggest you try this. Enjoy, and thanks Miss Becky for finding this for me, you saved me just in time for the Holidays.

I LOVE this recipie and so do my boys. (all grown now) Last Christmas my niece told me I should set up a booth at the mall, or try to sell them from home! My second oldest son loves for me to make these every Thanksgiving and Christmas. Sometimes I melt a bag of caramels and add to the caramel layer. Sometimes I use milk chocolate peices, and usually add 1 tsp. vanilla to the caramel layer. They are wonderful!!!

The first time I made these at Christmas, they were gone so quickly I had to make another batch!! Now I have to make them every year at Christmas or I'll be asked to make them anyway.(My son-in- law expects them as a present every year too). I did not change a thing with this recipe.

These cookies were so good! I make them every year at Christmas time. They are always the first to go on the cookie plate!
