Caramelized Pecan Cookies Recipe
With cookies it’s a love story; everyone at home is crazy about it and I admit that with quality coffee, a cookie of a few days is always welcome. This time I chose pecans, which I love as an aperitif, I like their flavor and their crunchiness. So why not caramelize them, with their salty side, the caramel will be strengthened, I loved it and, given the hole in the box, I’m not the only one, so much the better !! because they are there for that. This is a change from chocolate cookies, but be careful not to compare chocolate cookies and caramelized pecan cookies, they both have their home story, but the first to arrive are chocolate cookies, with big chips. of chocolate. Next time I want to test with salted peanuts, kinda like these pecan cookies
