Directions
Turtle Thumbprints, Caramel, chocolate, and pecans on a cookie — yum!, I made these for a few different Christmas trays this year and they were a big hit! Everyone wanted to know if I had more! Thanks for posting this recipe , Mmmmmmm!! I loved these!! The cookie flavor was delicious and then the caramel and the pecans & the chocolate – yum!! I think I overcooked them slightly, as it took longer than 10 minutes for them to begin to brown in my oven, but even so they still didn’t get too hard or crispy, just maybe not as soft as I would guess they are supposed to be I gave most of these away, so I look forward to making them again and enjoying! Thanks!!
