How to Make Turtle Cookie Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine crust ingredients (see below) and beat at medium speed until well blended.
- Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Evenly distribute chopped pecans over the crust.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2/3 cup (160g) unsalted butter and 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Continue boiling for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the pecans.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the caramel is bubbly.
- Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle the entire surface with 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate morsels.
- Let stand for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften slightly.
- Gently swirl the chocolate with a knife or offset spatula, leaving some morsels whole for texture.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
