This recipe is so good. It is fairly simple

1 package 16 ounces confectioners sugar, sifted

1 jar marshmallow crème

2 teaspoons maple flavoring

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 package 14 ounces caramels

3 tablespoons water

2 cups finely chopped toasted pecans

Combine in a large bowl confectioners sugar, marshmallow crème, maple flavoring and vanilla.

Knead mixture on a flat surface until all the sugar is incorporated. Divide mixture into fourths and

shape into a 5 inch log. Put them on a baking sheet and chill. In the meantime , unwrap the caramels

and melt them in a double boiler over simmering water, stir until smooth. Remove from heat and dip

each log in caramel mixture, then roll in pecans.

Chill for another hour or until firm. Wrap each log in plastic wrap. Store in an airtight container in a

cool place. Makes 4 pecan logs. These are good little tuck in gifts.
