ingredients

1 oreo pie crust
1 ¹⁄₄ cups chopped pecans, toasted
³⁄₄ cup sugar
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
36 caramels
¹⁄₄ cup water
¹⁄₄ cup butter
¹⁄₄ teaspoon salt

directions

The pie crust is the pre made oreo crust. Caramels are a bag of Kraft caramels unwrapped. I use real butter and real vanilla.
Toast pecans to bring out the flavor. Watch carefully, not to burn. In oven at 350 or on stove in a cast iron skillet.
Melt caramels, 1/4 c butter and 1/4 c water- low heat- stir often.
Mix eggs, beaten well w/ sugar, salt and vanilla.
Remove caramel from heat and add in nuts then sugar mixture. Stir well and pour into crust. This will totally fill crust. Have crust on a cookie sheet.
I bake at 300 for about 30-35 minutes. Will be a little jiggly- sets up more when cool.
