How to Make Gooey Turtle Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine 1 cup (2 sticks) melted butter and 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs in a 13x9-inch baking pan. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan to create an even crust.
  3. Evenly sprinkle 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate morsels over the crust.
  4. Top with 1 cup chopped pecans.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 (14-ounce) can caramel topping on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until smooth and melted.
  6. Drizzle the melted caramel evenly over the pecans.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until chocolate morsels are melted and the caramel is bubbly.
  8. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the bars to set before cutting into squares.
