Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar together until fluffy. Stir in egg and vanilla. Stir until well blended.
In a separate bowl, stir together dry ingredients (flour and cocoa). Add dry ingredients to moist ingredients and stir until all is incorporated.
Stir in chocolate chips and pecans. Roll into one inch balls.
Place 2 inches apart on baking sheet. Using the end of wooden spoon make an indentation into the center of each ball approximately 1/2 inch deep. Smooth out any cracks that may form while making indentations.
Fill indentations with caramel sauce. Bake for 15 minutes or until caramel is bubbling and cookies are firm.
Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before removing. Drizzle with confectionary coating while still warm.
