PECAN TOFFEE SQUARES

This is my great uncle's favorite dessert. I made this for his birthday(2/29) until Alzheimer's took him away from us. Every time I make this, it prompts my husband and sons to share their memories of him. Can be served warm or cold with or without Cool Whip® topping. Refrigerate leftovers.

Time 1h45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 egg, beaten
1 cup chopped pecans
1 (8 ounce) package toffee baking bits
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter, softened
1 (18 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 egg, beaten
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®), thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan. Mix sweetened condensed milk, 1 egg, pecans, toffee bits, and vanilla extract in a bowl until well blended; set aside.
  • Cut the butter and 1 egg into the yellow cake mix in a large bowl with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press the crumbs into the prepared pan to form a bottom layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until firm, about 7 minutes. Spread pecan filling over the baked bottom layer, then continue baking until the filling has set, 22 to 30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with whipped topping.

Time 25m

Yield 24-48 toffee squares, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 graham crackers, whole
1 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • Line a 10 x 15 inch jelly roll pan with graham crackers.
  • Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil and cook exactly 2 minutes. Pour Mixture over graham crackers. Sprinkle with nuts.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
  • Cut in to small squares to serve.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the toffee to prevent burning.
  • Be careful not to overcook the toffee; it should be a light golden color.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the toffee by dropping a small amount into a cup of cold water. If it forms a hard ball, it is ready.
  • Once the toffee is spread on the pecans, allow it to cool completely before cutting the squares. This will help the toffee to set and harden.
  • These squares can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Pecan toffee squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for parties, potlucks, and bake sales. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and crunchy dessert that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give pecan toffee squares a try.
