Servings: persons

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt (may omit if using salted butter)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
8 ounces Rolo chocolates, cut in half (can line them up and do several at a time)
1 cup lightly toasted and chopped pecans
1/2 - 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

1
Combine flour, soda and salt, if using; set aside.
2
Beat together butter and both sugars, until well blended.
3
Mix in egg, half and half and vanilla.
4
Blend in flour mixture until smooth.
5
Stir in, by hand, Rolo candies, pecans and chocolate chips (if using).
6
Wrap and chill dough, at least an hour before baking (not part of the original directions but I prefer to do this).
7
Drop dough by tablespoon onto silpat or parchment lined baking sheets (necessary because of the caramel, trust me!).
8
Bake at 350u00b0F for 10-13 minutes until edges are golden brown and center is still slightly soft.
