Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup caramel candies, quartered
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the caramel candies, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. The cookies will appear slightly undercooked, but they will firm up as they cool.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, serve and enjoy these delicious Turtles Cookies!
