Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together the cookies, pecan halves, raisins, and cherries.
- Place a piece of parchment inside an 8 by 8-inch baking dish. Parchment should hang over the edges all around. (Alternatively, you can butter the dish on all sides.)
- Place a large saucepan or deep skillet on low heat, melt 2 sticks of butter then add in the brown sugar. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a simmer. Stir to make sure the sugar is melted and cook for 1 more minute.
- Add the butter mixture to the cookies, pecans, raisins and cherries. Stir until combined. Pour the warm mixture into the prepared baking pan. Spread evenly with a spatula or the back of a large spoon.
- Place a medium saucepan of water, about 2 cups, onto a medium heat. Then place a heat-proof bowl over it to create a double boiler. Add the chocolate chips to the bowl. Allow the chocolate to sit for 1 minute over the heat. When it starts to melt, stir until it's completely melted. Pour the melted chocolate over top of the pecan mixture. Spread out evenly. Place the mixture into the refrigerator for about 1 hour or into the freezer for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Once set, tip out onto a cutting board, peel off the parchment and with a sharp knife cut the slab into small squares and serve.
CHOCOLATE CHIP PECAN BARS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9- by 13-inch pan.
- In a large bowl or mixer, cream butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, and water, and mix.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and soda. Add flour mixture to butter and egg mixture. Mix just enough to make sure ingredients are well combined, being sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
- Stir in chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Spread dough evenly in greased baking pan, smoothing the surface with a rubber spatula. Sprinkle additional 1 cup pecans on top and gently press into dough enough so that they do not move when the pan moves.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes in the center of the oven. Check bars after 25 minutes. If a toothpick comes out of the dough clean, the bars are done. If not, return bars to oven for another 5 minutes. When the bars are done, the edges will be very lightly browned. Cool on a rack. Cut with a sharp knife when cool six lengthwise and four across to get 24 bars. Store in an airtight container.
- Tips
- Replace vanilla with natural maple flavor.
- Use 3/4 cup dried coconut instead of 1 cup pecans in the bar and sprinkle 1/2 cup coconut on the top before baking.
