This is another recipe for the SEMI HOMEMADE group I started today (12/15). It is cookie based, yet Oooeeee, gooey, yummy tart! Always great to make and serve a prize winning dessert from Betty Crocker.

COOKIE BASE:
1 pouch (1lb. 1.5 ounce) betty crocker oatmeal cookie mix
1/2 c butter or margarine, softened
1 egg
1 c chopped pecans
FILLING:
40 caramels, unwrapped
1/3 c whipping cream
3/4 c chopped pecans
TOPPING:
1 12 ounce bag milk chocolate chips (2 cups)..good quality
1/3 c whipping cream
1/4 c chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, water and egg until soft dough forms. Stir in 1 cup pecans. Press dough in bottom and up sides of ungreased 9-inch tart pan with bottom that you can remove.
  • 2. bake 19-21 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 10 minutes.
  • 3. Meanwhile, in medium microwavable bowl, microwave caramels and 1/3 cup cream on High 2 to 4 minutes, stirring twice, until caramels are melted. Stir in 3/4 cup pecans. Spread over cooled crust. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • 4. In another med. microwaveable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and 1/3 cup cream on high 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until chocolate is smooth. Pour over filling. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup pecans. Refrigerate 2 hours or until set. To serve, let stand at room temperature 10 minutes before cutting. Store covered in refrigerator.
  • 5. *If you do not have a tart pan..use a 9 by 13 inch pan and cut into squares, instead of wedges. Also, I used a tart pan that didn't have a bottom that was removeable...and it worked out fine. Just cut into wedges right from the tart dish.
