Dot...you were right you can't just eat one! Made these to take to a friend's for dessert and they made a big dent in them! My jelly roll pan is larger than your dimensions, so I made them in two 8" pans that worked out perfectly. Love the soft texture of the crust with the crunch of the pecans in caramel. So yummy and satisfying! Thank you for this keeper recipe!

Tested these earlier to make as Xmas cookies. My husband was the taste tester and these passed with flying colors! Super good and another great addition to my Xmas trays I will make soon.
