Soft, delicate fudge cookies loaded with caramel and pecans, these Caramel Fudge Ecstacies are an afternoon snack dream come true.
Remember when I said I now like cookies? Chocolate chip to be exact or pretty much any ones with chocolate in them. But seriously I really like a fresh, warm chocolate cookie, especially the chocolate ones from the Great American Cookie Factory. As it happens the other day I was flipping through my well beloved cookie magazine and spotted these cookies and I just had to try them!
I love caramel and thought it would make a great addition to these cookies, boy was I right. The result is soft, delicate fudge cookies filled with caramel and pecans that are sure to brighten up ay day. Enjoy and happy baking!
