350F - 12 to 15 minutes - yield = 32 cookies (may want to double)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
8 vanilla caramels
160 pecan halves (about 2 1/4 cups)
Heat oven to 350F
Beat brown sugar, butter, water and vanilla in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed.
Stir in flour and salt
Cut each caramel into 4 pieces with kitchen scissors.
For each cookie, group 5 pecan halves on parchmented cookie sheet.
Shape 1 teaspoon dough on top of pecans - press down firmly onto nuts.
Place caramel piece on top.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes - until set but not brown. Immediately remove from cookies sheet to wire rack.
Original directions called for nuts to hang out underneath cookies - when I tried it that way, the nuts fell off the cookies. My niece Sami tried them this way and it worked well.
