Title: Mrs Fields Butterscotch Pecan Cookies
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 30 servings

2 1/2 c Flour
1/2 ts Soda
1/4 ts Salt

2 lg Eggs
2 ts Vanilla extract
1 c Pecans (4 oz); chopped

8 oz Caramels
1/4 c Heavy cream

Preheat oven to 300?F. In a bowl combine flour, soda, and salt. Mix
well and set aside. In a large bowl with electric mixer, beat sugar
and butter. Mix to form a grainy paste, scraping down the sides of
the bowl. Add eggs and vanilla, and beat at medium speed until soft
and lumpy (?). Add the flour mixture and chopped pecans just until
combined. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons 2" apart onto ungreased
cookie sheets. Place 1 whole pecan in center of each cookie. Bake
23-25 minutes or until cookie edges begin to brown lightly.
Transfer immediately to cool, flat surface with a spatula.

To Prepare The Caramel Glaze:

Melt the caramels with the cream in a small saucepan over low heat.
Stir with a spoon until smooth. Remove from heat. Drizzle cooled
cookies with the caramel glaze in desired pattern using a spoon or
fork.
