Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies


These are really, really good cookies! I love salty sweet treats like chocolate covered pretzels and these cookies have just the right salty-sweet combo!

And might I go so far to say that Kraft Caramel Bits are a blessed invention! Try these cookies, you won't be disappointed!!!!
