Not sure what I did wrong-maybe didn't bake long enough, but my chocolate chips melted right into my caramel. Wound up like fudge consistency. I did as others suggested and doubled caramel mixture as well as using 2c. flour in shorbread layer. ???

This was very good! I used 2 cups of flour as suggested by other members but I think it would of been better as written because this made the mixture a little dry. I crushed the pecans because it didn't seem to be enough to cover the entire pan if they were left whole. I would consider this to be a candy because of how sweet and rich the bars are.

I made these for Christmas and they couldn't have been easier. Of all the cookies I made, this is the one my family goes for first--even my tried and true traditional family favorites. Will definitely make these again and again.

I have a recipe for these from Taste of Home (1996) thatt is almost the same. They are delicious! For the crust I use 2c flour, 1 c brown sugar and 1/2c butter and press into 9x13 pan; top with 1c pecan halves. For caramel, boil 2/3c butter and 1/2c brown sugar, bring to boil and boil for 1 minute. Pour over crust and bake for 18-22 minutes @ 350*. Then just sprinkle on 1c semisweet choc chips and spread when melted.

These bars are to die for! It is almost impossible to eat just one; the combination of shortbread, homemade caramel, pecans, and chocolate is irresistable! Not only that, these bars are also pretty easy to make, and always turn out well! Thanks for a wonderful recipe; I will make these often!

All Recipes has come to my rescue once again! I wanted to make a pecan pie but had run out of eggs. Still craving pecans, I searched for an eggless pecan dessert and found this recipe. I followed the advise of previous reviewers and used 2 c. flour. And not having any more than 1/2 c. remaining butter for the caramel mixture, I added about 4 tablespoons of a thick butterscotch caramel dessert topping while it was boiling. Because I love white chocolate with caramel-pecan anything, I used it in place of the milk chocolate to spread over the bars. Note: Since white cocolate is sometimes difficult to melt, I put 1 1/2 c white chocolate chips in the microwave on half heat, stirring several times during the process to avoid seizing. I then drizzled the melted chocolate over the cookie bars. I am now thankful that I ran out of eggs! This recipe, with just a couple tweaks, is super yummy.

Very yummy recipe. I took other's advice and increased flour and doubled filling. Problem was I had to do another double batch. I made this in a pampered chef bar pan 11 x 13 and the doubled filling batch just wasn't enough. So I basically quadrupled it. Next time maybe I'll do it in my 10x13 cake pan, maybe I won't need to do 2 double batches. I used extra chocolate chips and used 1/3 cup semi and carmal swirls. Sending them to work with hubby once they are set. They are sure to love them! Will make again.

So yummy! I was short on a couple ingredients, so here is how I made do: -short on butter, add some peanut butter (this only works in the brown sugar mixture) -short on chocolate chips, add some white chocolate chips.

I made these for my friend who doesn't eat eggs. For a dessert without eggs, these are delicious. As an all around dessert, these are ok. Don't regret making them, but would make something else above these.

All I can say is "Really Good!!!" I upped the flour to 2 c and used 1 1/2 c of dark chocolate since I like it better than milk. Will definitely make this again! :)

These are one of the best bars I've made in the past few years. They don't take any time at all to make and they taste awesome. I used a scant 2 cups of flour in the shortbread crust, and only a half cup of butter for the toffee layer. Don't worry if it doesn't look like the toffee is going to cover the entire crust. It boils down to cover everything once you put it in the oven.
