Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 pkg caramels
1/4 c milk
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c butter, softened
2 eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 c pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt; set aside. In another bowl, mix brown sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and pecans until well blended. Add flour mixture and blend well.
  • 2. Reserve 1 cup of the batter. Spread remaining batter into a lightly greased 13x9" baking pan. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 15 minutes or until firm.
  • 3. In a microwavable bowl, microwave caramels and milk on HIGH for 2 to 3 minutes or until caramels are completely melted, stirring after every minute. Cool for 5 minutes or until slightly thick.
  • 4. Pour over baked layer in pan, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges. Drop reserved 1 cup batter by spoonfuls over caramel layer. Cut through batter with knife several times for marble effect.
  • 5. Bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes or until center is set. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars and enjoy the caramel-y decadence.

These bars were a little dry, but they were still good. I think I should have added a little more butter.

I had a little trouble getting the bars to swirl, but they still tasted good. I think I just need to practice a little more.

These bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar next time.
