Como fazer Chewy Pecan Diamonds

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang on all sides. Butter the foil.
  2. In a food processor, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup powdered sugar, ¼ cup cornstarch, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Pulse until combined.
  3. Add 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into cubes, and process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the crust is set and lightly golden. Remove from oven and let stand while preparing the topping.
  6. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
  7. In a heavy medium saucepan, combine 1 cup packed light brown sugar, ½ cup light corn syrup, and ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture boils.
  8. Boil for 1 minute. Stir in 1 cup pecan halves and ¼ cup heavy cream.
  9. Continue to boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 3 minutes).
  10. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  11. Pour the hot topping evenly over the warm crust.
  12. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the caramel is darker and bubbles thickly.
  13. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool completely.
  14. Lift the foil out of the pan and place it on a cutting board.
  15. Using a sharp knife, cut the cooled pecan caramel into 1 ½ x 1-inch diamonds.
  16. Makes approximately 32 diamonds.
