Provided by á-18433

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 package Nestle Toll House Ultimates Refedgerated Pecan Turtle Delight Cookie Dough
2 packages (8 ounces) cream cheese
1 can (14 ounces) Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/3 cup caramel ice cream topping
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
2 tablespoons Semi Sweet chocolate mini morsels

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325*. Paper line 24 muffin cups. Cut each square of dough in half. Place one piece of dough into each muffin cup. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cookie has spread to edge of cup. Beat cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, eggs and vanilla in medium bowl until smooth. Spoon about 3 tablespoons cream cheese mixture over each cookie in cup. Bake for additional 15-18 minutes or until set. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Top with caramel topping, pecans and morsels.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better your cups will taste. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. You can toast them in a pan on the stovetop or in the oven.
  • Be careful not to overcook the caramel: Overcooked caramel will be hard and brittle. Cook it until it is a deep amber color and has reached a temperature of 250°F (120°C).
  • Let the cups cool completely before filling them: If you fill the cups while they are still warm, the filling will melt and become runny.
  • Store the cups in a cool, dry place: The cups will keep for up to 2 weeks at room temperature or up to 3 months in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

These caramel pecan cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or topped with whipped cream or ice cream, these cups are sure to be a hit.
