Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup chopped pecans, (toasted)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, (room temperature)
3/8 cup dark brown sugar
6 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 Tablespoons heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate baking bar, (coarsely chopped)
2/3 cup heavy cream
fine sea salt for sprinkling on top ((optional))

Steps:

  • Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and bake them in a preheated 300°F oven until they darken slightly in color and begin to give off a nutty toasted aroma, about 4 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 metal baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add flour, brown sugar, and butter to the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture becomes a very crumbly dough.
  • Pour the dough into the prepared pan and gently press the dough into the bottom of the pan to create a solid crust. Make sure the crust reaches all the way into the edges and corners of the pan and that there are no holes in the crust.
  • Bake the crust until it's a light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool slightly while you prepare the caramel pecan layer.
  • In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and heavy cream, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve. Let the mixture boil without stirring for 1 minute, then remove the pan from the heat.
  • Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the shortbread crust and pour the caramel over the pecans.
  • Return the pan to the oven and bake the bars until the caramel is bubbling and darkens slightly in color, about 15 minutes. Remove the bars from the oven a let cool completely.*
  • Once the bars have cooled, prepare the chocolate ganache. Place the chocolate in a medium bowl and set aside. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it's just simmering (not boiling!). Pour the warm cream over the chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes. Then gently whisk the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Pour the chocolate ganache over the cooled bars and spread it into an even layer using a spatula. Let the chocolate set before sprinkling with salt (optional), slicing, and serving the bars.

TURTLE BARS

Categories     Milk/Cream     Chocolate     Nut     Dessert     Bake     Pecan     Walnut     Vanilla     Winter     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes thirty 2- by 1 1/2-inch bar cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the base
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten lightly
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
For the topping
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
4 tablespoons dark corn syrup
1/3 cup heavy cream
3 cups walnuts or pecans, toasted lightly
1 tablespoon dark rum

Steps:

  • Make the base:
  • Line the bottom of a greased 13- by 9-inch baking pan with wax paper and grease the paper. In a heavy saucepan melt the butter with the cocoa, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Remove the pan from the heat, beat in the brown sugar and the egg, and stir in the flour, the salt, and the vanilla. Spread the mixture in the baking pan, bake it in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 10 minutes, or until it is just firm to the touch and pulls away slightly from the sides, and let it cool in the pan on a rack.
  • Make the topping:
  • In a heavy saucepan melt the butter, add the brown sugar and the corn syrup, and bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat, stirring with a wooden spoon. Boil the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it reaches the hard-ball stage (260°F. on a candy thermometer), remove the pan from the heat, and add the cream and the walnuts carefully, stirring gently. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil it until it reaches the soft-ball stage (240°F. on a candy thermometer). Remove the pan from the heat, let the caramel mixture cool for 1 minute, and stir in the rum.
  • Pour the topping over the base, spreading it evenly with the wooden spoon, let it cool, and chill the confection, covered with foil, for 2 hours, or until it is firm. Run a thin knife around the edges of the pan, turn the confection out onto a cutting board, and cut it into bars. The bars keep, separated by sheets of wax paper, in an airtight container, chilled, for 1 week.
