Graham Cracker Pecan Treats

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Graham Cracker Pecan Treats.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). This is the perfect temperature to get those cookies nice and golden. Next, take your graham crackers and lay them out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they’re snug against each other, creating a solid base for your delicious topping.

2. Step 2

   In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, margarine, and white sugar. Stir the mixture gently until the sugar dissolves, which should take about 2 minutes. The aroma of melting butter and sugar will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Once the sugar is dissolved, fold in the finely chopped pecans, allowing them to soak up all that buttery goodness.

3. Step 3

   Now, it’s time to spread this heavenly mixture over the graham crackers. Use a spatula to ensure each cracker gets a generous layer of the pecan topping. Don’t be shy—this is what makes them so irresistible!

4. Step 4

   Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let the cookies bake for about 8 to 10 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when the butter mixture is absorbed and the edges start to look a little crispy. Keep an eye on them; you want that perfect balance of chewy and crunchy!

5. Step 5

   Once they’re done, carefully transfer the crackers to cool on a sheet of aluminum foil or wax paper. This will prevent them from sticking and make cleanup a breeze. After they’ve cooled, break the crackers into bite-sized pieces. Now you have a delightful treat that’s perfect for sharing—or keeping all to yourself!
