Zubereitung von Ultimate Turtle Cookie Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in ¾ cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped pecans.
- Press the cookie dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 28-33 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- While the cookie bars are baking, prepare the caramel topping: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the caramels with the milk, stirring constantly until smooth.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- Remove the cookie bars from the oven and immediately pour the melted caramel evenly over the warm cookie dough.
- Sprinkle with the remaining ½ cup pecan halves.
- Let the bars cool completely on a wire rack for at least 1 hour.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips and shortening in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled bars.
- Let stand for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
