Turtle Bars

crust:
2 cups flour
1 cup brown sugar
¾ cup butter, softened

caramel:
1 cup butter
1½ cups brown sugar
3 Tbsp. corn syrup

plus:
2 cups of chopped pecans
2 cups of milk chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350°.  Butter a 9X13 inch pan. (These squares tend to stick so butter it up good.)

Combine ¾ cup softened butter, 1 cup brown sugar and 2 cups flour: mix well. Pour the mixture into 9X13 pan and press down evenly to form the crust.
Sprinkle 2 cups chopped pecans over the top of the crust and press them in a bit. Set aside.

In a saucepan, bring 1 cup butter, 1½ cups brown sugar and 3 Tbsp. corn syrup to a boil and boil for one minute.

Pour over crust in pan and bake at 350 ° for 20 minutes.

Take out of the oven and sprinkle 2 cups of milk chocolate chips over the top. Let sit about 5 minutes and then spread softened chips to cover.



Allow ample cooling time before you enjoy!
