Chocolate Pecan Turtle Squares

INGREDIENTS:

CRUST:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter softened

CARAMEL LAYER:
2/3 cup butter
1/2 cup firmy packed brown sugar
1 cup semisweet chocolate bits
1 cup pecan halves, do not chop

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Crust is easy to make if you use a food processor. If not, put crust ingredients in a large mixing bowl and use a beater to work the flour mixture until mealy. Pat firmly into the bottom of a ungreased 9 x 13 inch pan. Sprinkle the pecan halves evenly over the crust.

Prepare the carmel layer:

Use a heavy duty 1 quart saucepan, combine the brown sugar and butter. Bring to a boil and cook over medium heat for 1/2 to 1 minute - STIRRING CONSTANTLY.

Pour caramel over pecans and crust in pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 18 to 22 minutes or until caramel layer is bubbly and crust is light brown.

Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate bits over the top immediately.

Let this stand for 2 to 3 minutes and then take the knife and swirl the chocolate over the top. Do not spread it smooth.

Cool completely and cut into 2 inch squares.
