This is our 5th cookie this week. Which means as a minimum, we would have each eaten 5 cookies. Though of course we haven't eaten just one of each....
Either way, they are all delicious. Today's calorie filled holiday treat is just as good, if not better, than all of the others. This recipe comes from my mom, and is one of the few recipes we make every year no matter what. This is one of those fun recipes that pushes the envelope on what classifies as a cookie. It starts with graham crackers and is topped with a yummy toffee like syrup. Basically a hand held pecan pie bite. Worth every calorie.
Pecan Grahams
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, 2 sticks
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- pinch salt
- 1 cup pecans
- 12 graham crackers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Spread graham crackers on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Melt butter over medium heat, add brown sugar, salt, stir continuously. Cook about 2 minutes, or until sugar is well disolved and mixture is homogenous and beginning to boil.
- Add in pecans, cook about 1 minute more, stirring continuously.
- Pour the mixture onto the grahams, spread evenly.
- Bake for 15 minutes, let cool for 10 minutes, and cut into rectangles. Enjoy!
