Butter Pecan Cookies / Pareve

Butter Pecan Turtle Cookies

Kosher // Pareve

Ingredients

2 cups of flour

1 & 1/5 cups of brown sugar

1/2 cup of canola oil

1 & 1/5 cups of pecan chips

2/3 cups of margarine

1 cup of chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Directions

1) Combine 2 cups of flour, 1 cup brown sugar, and 1 & 3/4 cup margarine - Mix until dough is smooth.

2) Spray cake pan with pareve non stick cooking spray & spread crust evenly with spoon/butter knife in pan.

3) Sprinkle 1 & 1/2 cups pecans over crust.

4) Turn on stove to medium heat.

5) In a saucepan heat 2/3 cup margarine & 1/2 cup brown sugar, stir very occasionally; let 

mixture boil until it bubbles such that the sugar & margarine are integrated.

6) Immediately pour caramel over pecans as evenly as possible.

7) Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 18 minutes.

8) Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle chocolate chips on top. (I find it easiest to turn off the oven and place pan back in, allowing chocolate chips to melt, then pull it out and spread evenly.)

9) Allow to cool, refrigerating for 1-3 hours. Cut into Squares. (I keep ours refrigerated for more of a crunch!)

This is the package of Pecan's I use - bought from Walmart for about $4.00 - notice the U in the right hand corner!

Note: Once cooled, cookies can be packaged and frozen.
