                My family loves these cookies. WARNING: They are super rich, but oh-so-good. Like mini pecan pie without the eggy-ness in the filling. Thye are a must-have treat on our Christmas cookie platter.

                This is truly the worst recipe I've ever tried from Martha Stewart. There is entirely too much butter. It would never make 10 dozen. The shortbread was too soft. Very frustrating and I wasted 3.5 cups of pecans! Unbelievable.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 cups pecans
  • 1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • Caramel for Bar Cookies

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread pecans on a baking pan. Bake until golden and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool. Chop roughly, and set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light in color. With the mixer on low speed, add flour, and mix until just combined.

Line an 11-by-17-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Press dough into the bottom of baking pan in an even layer. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, using a microwave or double boiler, heat caramel until liquid; stir in pecans. Spread mixture over the cookie layer. Return pan to oven, and bake until caramel is slightly darkened in color, about 10 minutes. Transfer pan to wire rack to cool. Cut into 2 3/4-by-1/2-inch rectangles.
