TURTLES® COOKIES II

Turtles® Cookies II image

This is a tasty butter cookie, rolled in nuts, filled with caramel, and coated with chocolate. I won a local baking contest with these. Everyone loves them! You can fill the cookies with caramel apple dip instead of caramel ice cream topping. Works great!

Ingredients

1 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 egg whites
1 cup chopped pecans
½ cup caramel ice cream topping
1 cup chocolate coating wafers, melted

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Stir in the vanilla, then the flour.
Roll the dough into walnut sized balls, roll the balls in the egg whites, then roll them in the chopped pecans. Place the cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on an unprepared cookie sheet. Using your finger, make an indention in the center of each cookie.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until bottom of cookies are lightly browned.
When the cookies come out of the oven fill the indentation with the caramel filling, and let cool. Pour about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of chocolate over each cookie to cover the caramel center. Let stand until chocolate is set.

These cookies are way too time-consuming to make. I won't be making them again.

I followed the recipe exactly but my cookies didn't turn out right. They were too dry.

I used dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate and they turned out great! The dark chocolate adds a richer flavor.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of caramel, but I'm so glad I did! The caramel is perfectly balanced by the chocolate and pecans.
