Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Roughly chop enough pecans to make 1 and 1/2 cups and set aside.

In a bowl, add 2 cups of flour and 1 cup of brown sugar and mix together.

Add 3/4 cup of melted butter and mix well.

Evenly press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish or pan.

Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top.

Warm 14 oz of caramel ice cream topping and drizzle it evenly over the chopped pecans.

Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the caramel is bubbling.

Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack.

Sprinkle 1 package (11 and 1/2 oz) of milk chocolate morsels over the top and let sit for a few minutes before spreading it out evenly.

Let it cool for several hours or until the chocolate has set up.

Cut into squares to serve.
