HOLIDAY PECAN LOGS



Holiday Pecan Logs image

Meet the Cook: For 50 years, I've turned to this beloved recipe to make candy to give away at Christmas. Of the many types I've tried, these pecan logs continue to be the most popular. I'm a registered nurse who managed to juggle my profession with raising our five children. Besides cooking and baking, my interests include sewing and putting together family photo albums. -Maxine Ruhl, Fort Scott, Kansas

  • Prepare the caramel mixture by microwaving the caramels, butter and milk in a medium sized bowl for about 1 minute 30 seconds, adding more time in 20 second increments as needed until mixture can be whisked smooth. Set aside so that caramel can cool white you're making the "nougat."
  • Combine butter and marshmallow creme in a large bowl. Microwave on high for about 1 minute 30 seconds and stir to combine. Stir in about 4 rounded cups of powdered sugar, working it completely in so that a smooth, white dough forms. (I used my Kitchenaid mixer for that part- mixing it by hand would be a workout!)
  • Transfer the dough to a large piece of wax paper dusted with powdered sugar. Roll into a large oval about 1/2" thick. Brush with about 3/4 of the caramel. Gently roll dough beginning on one long end. Pinch ends of dough together once you're done rolling. Cut log in half.
  • Spread pecans out on a cookie sheet and transfer logs onto the top of the caramel. Prepare yourself- this part gets messy! Brush logs with remaining caramel and turn to coat in pecans, brushing and turning until caramel is gone and logs are covered in pecans. Continue pressing pecans into the logs using your hands and pressing the logs gently down onto more chopped pecans.

  • Divide ripened fondant into fourths. Shape each piece into a 3-inch-long log. In a heavy 1-1/2-quart saucepan combine caramels, butter, and milk. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted. Meanwhile, spread chopped pecans or peanuts on a piece of waxed paper.

  • Place the dipped log on the chopped pecans or peanuts. Use the waxed paper to roll the dipped log in the chopped nuts until it is covered. Place logs on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Chill about 1 hour or until firm. To serve, let logs stand at room temperature about 30 minutes; cut into 1/4-inch slices. Makes about 48 slices.
