Preparation

Step 1

Line bottom of a 13x9 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, extending foil about 2 inches beyond long sides of pan; spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.

In small saucepan, melt caramels with milk over low heat, stirring often until smooth; cool slightly. In large mixer bowl, beat brown sugar, butter, vanilla and egg on medium speed until smooth; add graham cracker crumbs, flour and salt.

Continue beating on low speed until crumbly; set aside 1-12/ cups of mixture. Press remaining crumb mixture into bottom of prepared pan. Sprinkle chocolate chunks and pecans evenly over crust; pour melted caramels over top.

Crumble the reserved graham cracker mixture unevenly over the caramel sauce, leaving some of the filling uncovered.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until caramel is bubbling and edges of crust are begging to brown (20-25 minutes); cool completely on wire rack.

Remove from pan using the foil to lift out in one piece; cut into bars.

Amount: 24 bars.
