These are so good.. They're a cross between a cookie and a candy... but are very easy to make.. a thing that I don't do very often since I can't leave them alone! I got the recipe from a pamphlet called Fall Baking by Pillsbury
Ingredients:
1 pillsbury plus yellow cake mix
1/4 cup butter
4 cups pecan halves ( i use a little more)
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup whipping cream
optional: bag of either milk chocolate or semi-sweet chips
Directions:
1. place cake mix in a large bowl. using a pastry blender cut in 1/4 cup butter until the mixture resembles course crumbs
2. press into an ungreased 15 x 10'' jelly roll pan
3. top with the pecans. gently press into the dough
4. in a heavy pan combine brown sugar, sugar, 1 cup butter, and honey
5. bring to a full boil over medium heat stirring constantly
6. boil 3 mins. remove from heat
7. stir in cream until well blended
8. pour filling over pecans.. ( the nuts will move around )
9. bake 350' 17-22 mins or until the entire surface is bubbly
10. optional if you are going to put the chocolate chips on wait until it sets up a little then drop on and swirl around
11. cool completely then cut
