Salted Butterscotch & Pecan No-Bakes
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. + chilling
YIELD: 4 dozen.
When I was deciding what type of cookie to make for a Christmas swap, I opted for something with coconut, pudding mix and salted caramel. Boxed, these could make a great gift as well. I like to drizzle caramel over the tops of the cookies before serving for a special touch. —Stacey Ritz, Sudbury, Ontario
