Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
1 lb. pkg powdered sugar, sifted
1 3/4 cups marshmallow creme
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 14 oz. pkg. caramels
3 Tblsp. water
2 cups chopped pecans
Directions
Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well. Knead 10
minutes or until smooth (mixture will be dry)
Shape into 4 five inch logs. Cover & chill at least 3 hours.
Unwrap caramels; combine caramels & water in a large skillet. Cook
over medium heat until caramels melt; reduce heat to low, and stir
until smooth.
Working quickly with forks, roll each log in caramel mixture. Roll in
pecans, pressing firmly to coat.
Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
Yield 4 five inch logs
These are also good substituting chopped salted peanuts for pecans.
An electric knife helps to cut logs into slices
