Recipe(tried): Kokanee Circles (A Holiday Favorite)

Desserts - Cookies, Brownies, Bars
From my house in Nelson, BC Canada, I can see Kokanee Glacier Park and it gives me inspiration for many things. I decided to name these Kokanee Circles after it. My kids love to get involved in making these.

FIRST LAYER:
2 1/4 cups of pecans

Put pecans in a food processor and process until very fine.

1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cups arrowroot powder
2 tablespoons Rapadura or Sucanant (whole cane sugar)
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs

Add all of the above ingredients to the pecans and process until well blended. Press into a 9x13-inch glass pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.

SECOND LAYER:
1 cup butter
2/3 cup honey
3/4 cup Rapadura or Sucanant (whole cane sugar)

Place the above ingredients into a pot and melt together on medium heat until it starts to boil. Boil for 5 minutes while stirring and then take off burner.

ADD:
5 tablespoons of heavy (whipping) cream

Pour this sweet mixture on top of pecan crust and bake again for 20 minutes.

THIRD LAYER:
Right when you take it out of oven, sprinkle with:
1 1/2 cups of good bittersweet chocolate chips or cut-up from a bar.

Let cool completely and cut into squares or use a cookie cutter and cut out into circles.
