Caramel Slices

Cause Connie doesn't like nuts, we usually make these without them. They are very mild flavored. I'd suggest making closer to 1 1/2" wide.

8-10 min 350°F

YIELD: 5 DOZEN REFRIDGERATE
1 cup butter, at room temp
2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. Each baking soda and cream of tartar
3 ¼ cups all purpose flour
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Beat butter and sugar together until light and creamy. Mix in eggs and vanilla. In a separate bowl, stir together baking soda, cream of tartar and flour. Add to creamed mixture, mixing until blended. Stir in nuts. Shape into rolls 2 ½” in diameter. Wrap in foil, waxed paper or plastic wrap and chill until firm. Cut into 3/8” thick slices and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake in a 350°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes are until golden brown.
