This Caramel Pecan Bar Recipe makes a wonderful treat that is a cross between a cookie and a blondie, but better! I love them because they are soft like a cookie, but stand up like a blondie.

Made with a just-right caramel filling is and chopped pecans, these never last long in the house.

These Caramel Pecan Bars are so good and incredibly addicting. I am always asked for the recipe for these. So good!

I also love the milk chocolate chips as they propel this to a seriously-addicting level for dessert bars.

and then top with the melted caramel sauce on top.

Decadent? Yes.

Tasty?

Oh yes.

You will need to cool completely before you cut into bars, but let me tell you, the result is a delightful semi-salted caramel cookie bar with crunchy pecans and sweet milk chocolate.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
