- We’re giving one of our most popular videos an update and some delicious modifications. These candies are perfect for the holidays and especially for Valentine’s Day. We make them in a pan and cut them into squares rather than forming them as individual candies. And we sprinkle them with coarse salt for an added flavor dimension. Nothing says, “I love you,” like these amazing homemade candies.
Salted Caramel Pecan Squares
3½ cups, 450g, pecans, toasted
1 cup, 226g, salted butter
1 pound, 452g, light brown sugar
2 cups, 473ml, light cream or half and half
1 cup, 226g, light corn syrup
1 tablespoon, 15ml, vanilla extract
12 ounces, 339g, milk chocolate chips
coarse salt
Toast pecan halves in a single layer in a 350°F, 180°C, oven until they begin to brown and are fragrant, about 8 minutes. Or roast the pecans in a dry skillet on top of the stove turning often until they begin to brown. Do not let the pecans burn. Arrange the nuts in a single layer completely covering the bottom of an 11 by 15 inch (28x38cm) jellyroll pan covered with nonstick aluminum foil.
Melt the butter in a 4 quart sauce pan over medium heat. Add the sugar, syrup, and half and half to the pan and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan. Bring the mixture to 240°F, 115°C, stirring two or three times. This will take close to an hour. Do not leave the caramel to boil unattended since the temperature can quickly rise, especially in the last few degrees.
Once the caramel reaches temperature, remove the thermometer from the candy and the pan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla. Pour the mixture evenly over the pecans in the pan, smoothing carefully to cover everything. Let the caramel sit for 5 minutes and then spread the milk chocolate chips over the top in a single layer. Let the chocolate sit for 8-10 minutes or until they are shiny. Once the chocolate has melted, spread it in a even layer over top of the caramel. Immediately top with a light sprinkle of coarse salt.
Let the caramel cool to room temperature and then refrigerate, uncovered, for a few hours or overnight. Bring the caramels back to room temperature to cut into one inch squares. Store at room temperature in an airtight container with parchment paper between the layers.

I'm so sorry about your sweet kitty. Thank you for the great video.
She loved to be in the kitchen with me. ❤️🐈 You’re welcome!! This is one of our favorites!! Thanks for watching and commenting. ❤️🍫
Yay, i found it! I'm going to try both of your recipes! Thanks again! 🙂
❤️
I just made these turtles and let me tell ya it's a home run.
We made five pans last year for Christmas candy to give to friends and family. Thanks for watching.
Mmmm mmm good 💗 I would love those so much and I've been wanting to make. I would totally burn my mouth with that spoon. I remember your pretty kitty.
I have risked a burned mouth on the spoon myself!! 😂 We still miss her. ❤️🐈
Get in my belly!!! Looks delicious
I am going to get so fat from eating all of these. We’re already on pan #5 and it’s only January 11th!! Happy New Years to you and your family, Robert. ❤️😋🍾
Give this a DOUBLE YUMMM!!! Such a great idea -- a sheet versus making single turtles. Will be giving this a try but do prefer dark versus milk chocolate. And I miss your kitty cat from before!!
We all miss her too. 🐈❤️ Dark chocolate would be just as lovely here!! Thanks for watching and commenting!!😊
I could’ve watched you smoothing that chocolate all day. These look so good. I will save this recipe so I can try it later.
It’s so much less time consuming. I can’t believe how much I made this year!!
That looks so good and you made it look so easy
They really are not that difficult. The most important step is making sure you get the temperature right. Otherwise they are quite easy to make. Thanks for watching.
❤ sounds so yummy cant wait to make
They’re delicious and much less tedious than making them individually. Thanks for watching.
Happy belated new year, Laurice.
Happy belated new year to you as well!! 😊
That looks delicious, but it was absolutely brilliant of you on melting those chocolate chips by putting them directly on the hot Carmel. Everybody else melted the chocolate either by microwave or by stove. Once again, brilliant.
Thanks! I also do that with our chocolate covered Rocha. No need to expend extra energy to melt the chocolate first. Plus there’s no chocolate left in a bowl. 😋
Hi Laurice, They look a little time consuming but delicious and I’m sure worth every minute. You always look so cute in your videos. Thanks for sharing… My mouth is watering! 👍 Enjoy your week and I’ll see you soon, Dolores 🥰
Thank you!! 😊 They are worth every second. My mouth was watering why I was editing. 😋❤️🍫 Happy new year!!
So very sorry to hear about your beloved beautiful cat, that is so sad to go through I know. 😭❤ You made my favorite candy YUM!😍 I would love to try this recipe sometime soon. Thank you for this awesome recipe❣🤗🍫
She passed almost two years ago now, but I still miss seeing her when we film. She was so curious. ❤️🐈 Based on all the requests for more, this seems to be everyone’s favorite candy!! 😋😄 It’s not difficult, just a bit time consuming and well worth every second of it. 🍫❤️ Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@LauricesKitchen2010 This delicious candy is also nice to put into a beautiful box to give someone as a special gift!💌 I will definitely need to try this!!😄🎈🎉 Oh yes well I still miss my beloved first cat I ever had when I was 4 years old! [and Im in my 50's now], they are a part of our family, right! I love cats & dogs.🐶❤🐱❤ I'm going to check out more of your recipes now...Thank you!!😊
@@pamelacampos7629 there are quite a few cute treat boxes and cookie tins that we’ve put these in. I wish there were heart boxes, but that would just be icing on the cake. 😊😋
Yummy recipe 😋😋
Thank you!! Happy new year!! 😊🍾❤️🍫
awesomeness L dub
We made so many!!
Those looked good! I had some tonight from the local grocery store. Any chance I can get adopted into your family so I get included in the giveaways? Also, you had a ghost cat on your counter! 😳
My neighbors want to marry me; you want to be adopted... 😄❤️😊 I was hoping she’d be a bit more active, but it’s the footage from the original video and she just wanted to sit by me and watch. 🐈❤️
I had to close your video as soon as I saw that one of the ingredients is fructose syrup. This ingredient is not healthy.
Did the fact that I’m making candy completely escape your notice? In point of fact, corn syrup is pure glucose not fructose. Do just a touch of research before publicly shooting off your mouth so you don’t look so foolish next time.
