Preheat oven to 350°F. 13x9 inch baking pan lined with foil that is lightly greased
Mix flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in medium bowl. Set aside. Mix brown sugar,
butter, eggs, vanilla and pecans in large bowl until well blended. Add flour mixture; mix well. Reserve 1 cup of the batter. Spread remaining batter into lightly greased foil-lined 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake 15 minutes or until firm.

Place the milk and unwrapped caramels in a medium sauce pan over low heat. Stir until caramels have melted. Cool 5 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Pour over baked layer in pan,spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges. Drop reserved 1 cup batter by spoonfuls over caramel layer. Cut through batter with knife several times for marbled effect.
