    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  


1 cup pecans
1/3 cup plus 1 tbsp sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, sliced
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup flour
24 soft caramel candies
3/4 cup confectioners sugar

Using a food processor, grind the pecans and 1 tbsp sugar for 20 seconds; transfer to a medium bowl; set aside.

In the food processor, pulse the butter, remaining 1/3 cup sugar and the vanilla until combined, scraping the bowl once or twice. Add the flour and pulse to combine. Stir into the pecan mixture.

Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 325. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Roll 1 tbsp dough into a ball, press a caramel into the center, then roll to enclose the caramel. Repeat with the remaining dough and caramels; place 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake until lightly colored, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes; coat with confectioners sugar while warm. Coat again just before serving.
