Heat oven to 350°F. In medium bowl, stir together cookie mix, butter, egg and 1/2
cup chopped pecans until soft dough forms. Press evenly in ungreased 8-inch square
pan. Bake 28 to 33 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan,
heat caramels and milk over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and
smooth. Remove from heat. Carefully spread melted caramels evenly over warm bars;
sprinkle with pecan halves. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 1 hour. In
small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and shortening uncovered on
High 30 to 60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until melted and smooth. Drizzle
over bars. Let stand about 30 minutes or until chocolate is set. For bars, cut
into 4 rows by 4 rows.
