Directions:

  1. Crush 1-1/2 cups pecans, mix with 2 tsp sugar. Divide into two equal batches, set aside. Divide chocolate chips into two equal batches, set aside.
  2. Melt butter on low heat in large heavy saucepan (don't brown), remove from heat and use a little to grease cookie sheet. Arrange 1 cup (whole) pecan halves on cookie sheet.
