INGREDIENTS


2-3 sleeves Ritz crackers


1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

1/3 cup brown sugar


2 tablespoons milk


1 teaspoon vanilla


1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

How to Make Pecan Dandy Do’s


Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and arrange crackers in a single layer.


In a small saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, butter, and brown sugar. Simmer over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring often.


Reduce heat to low and whisk in milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth. Fold in pecans and cook for 2 additional minutes or until mixture is thick.


Remove from heat.


Use a greased cookie scoop to top each cracker with the caramel mixture.


Allow cookies to fully cool, then store in an airtight container.
