The Cookie Tin
These soft cookies have a sweet caramel flavor with crunchy pecans. This would make great drop cookies too. If making overnight cookies I recommend using butter as the margarine just doesn't allow the cookies to get hard enough to slice. If you don't like pecans try mini-chocolate chips instead.
