Turtle Thumbprint Cookie Collage

Combine flour, cocoa and salt in a bowl and set aside.

Using your mixer on medium speed mix butter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy.

Add egg yolk, vanilla and mix until well blended then reduct speed and pour in flour mixture until just combined.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and put in the fridge to cool for an hour.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line your baking sheets with waxed paper.

Whisk the egg whites until frothy and put the chopped pecans into a separate bowl.

Roll balls of dough into 1 inch balls, dip into egg whites and dip in pecans.

Place balls onto baking sheets 2 inches apart.

Press the center of each cookie to create a 1/2 inch indentation.

Bake until firm, approximately 15 mins.

Microwave caramels and cream in a bowl until smooth.

When cookies are done, gently re-press indentations and fill with caramel mixture.
