Chocolate Caramel Pecan Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 oreo pie crust
    1 1/4 cups chopped pecans, toasted
    3/4 cup sugar
    3 eggs
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    36 caramels
    1/4 cup water
    1/4 cup butter
    1/4 teaspoon salt
Preparation
    The pie crust is the pre made oreo crust. Caramels are a bag of Kraft caramels unwrapped. I use real butter and real vanilla.
    Toast pecans to bring out the flavor. Watch carefully, not to burn. In oven at 350 or on stove in a cast iron skillet.
    Melt caramels, 1/4 c butter and 1/4 c water- low heat- stir often.
    Mix eggs, beaten well w/ sugar, salt and vanilla.
    Remove caramel from heat and add in nuts then sugar mixture. Stir well and pour into crust. This will totally fill crust. Have crust on a cookie sheet.
    I bake at 300 for about 30-35 minutes. Will be a little jiggly- sets up more when cool.
