Caramel Pecan Bars
The Loudoun Museum had Lola's Caramel Pecan Bars at their Volunteer thank you Christmas party 2007 and I tried them. They are so delicious. I felt like I had died and gone to heaven. They are beautiful bar cookies and their taste matches nothing I've ever had. Thank you Lola for sharing your recipe and videos !
