Serves/Makes: 32
Ready in: 30-60 minutes

***Cookies***

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup margarine or butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • pecan halves
  • 8 vanilla caramels, each cut into fourths

***Chocolate Glaze***

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cookies: Mix brown sugar, margarine, water and vanilla. Stir in flour and salt until dough holds together (if dough is dry, stir in 1-2 tsp. water). Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

For each cookie, group 5 pecan halves (to form head and 4 legs like a turtle) on ungreased cookie sheet. Shape dough by teaspoonfuls around caramel pieces and press firmly onto center of each group of pecans.

Bake until set but not brown, 12-15 minutes. Cool. Dip tops of cookies in chocolate glaze.

For Glaze: Beat powdered sugar, water, chocolate and vanilla until smooth. If necessary, stir in water 1 tsp. at a time until desired consistency.
