Instructions
Carmel - Make this first so it has time to cool & solidify.
Step 1
Add sugar, water, & cream of tartar to heavy-bottomed saucepan; place over med.-high.
Step 2
Cook until sugar dissolves & begins to turn golden-amber colored. Lift saucepan & gently swirl to make sure that caramel is evenly cooking. (Sometimes, you might notice that caramel is darkening faster in certain areas than others so that gentle swirl will help with that.)
Step 3
Turn heat off; add butter & cream immediately. Stir using wooden spoon to get everything well-incorporated.
Step 4
If caramel looks clumpy, place saucepan back on stove on med.; stir until smooth. Cool down; chill in fridge to thicken before using it in these cookies.
Preheat oven to 350°F
Step 5
Line baking sheet with parchment paper; set aisde.
Step 6
Cream butter & sugars together until creamy.
Step 7
Mix in egg & vanilla until combine; add flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, & salt; mix just until combined.
Step 8
Scoop 7 equally-sized cookie dough balls; roll sides in chopped pecans. Place them on baking sheet; gently flatten to 1”-thick.
Step 9
Bake cookies ( 10-11 min.) Cool on baking sheet (20 min.); transfer to cooling rack.
Step 10
Top each cookie with ½-1 Tbsp caramel sauce, spread it all around, & top with melted chocolate. Decorate with chopped pecan pieces; chill in fridge (30 min.) before serving.
Notes
Step 11
Caramel Sauce - make from scratch (following this recipe) or use store-bought dulce de leche or caramel dip (found in the fruit section by the apples)
Step 12
Store in airtight container in fridge (up to a week.) They are supposed to be eaten chilled so no need to let them get back to room temp. before enjoying them.
Step 13
These cookies can also be frozen in an airtight container (up to 2 mo.)
