Chocolate Caramel Turtle Bars Recipe
Directions
  • Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  • Press the sugar cookie dough into the bottom of an ungreased 9 x 13 pan.
  • Sprinkle half the chocolate chips and chopped pecans over the sugar cookie dough. Press the chocolate chips and pecans into the dough lightly.
  • Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a heavy saucepan. Add the caramel topping, brown sugar, and graham cracker crumbs to the melted butter and stir to combine.
  • Bring mixture to a boil, stirring continuously.
  • Pour this mixture over the crust and spread out evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips and pecans over the top of the caramel topping layer.
  • Bake for 25 to 35. The bars are done when the edges are golden brown and the pecans are slightly toasted.
  • Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack.
  • Allow the bars to cool for 30 minutes; then loosen them from the sides of the pan only. Leave them in the pan to cool completely before cutting.
