2 packages (3 ounces each) ladyfingers

1/4 cup milk

1 package (19.8 to 21.5 ounces) fudge brownie mix

1/3 cup water

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 egg

1cup pecan halves

1cup semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips

Vegetable cooking spray
Thoroughly spray bottom and sides of 13 x 9-inch pan with vegetable cooking spray. Line bottom of pan with ladyfinger halves, split sides up; set aside. In medium saucepan melt caramels with milk over low heat, stirring occasionally until smooth and blended or place in medium microwavable bowl and microwave on high (full power) 3 to 4 minutes or just until melted, stirring twice during cooking. Stir until smooth and blended. Drizzle half of caramel mixture over ladyfingers in pan. Do not spread. 

In large bowl combine brownie mix, water, oil and egg. Stir with spoon until blended. Spoon and spread over caramel and ladyfingers in pan. Drizzle reserved caramel mixture over the brownie mix. Using tip of knife gently swirl into batter for marbled effect. Top with pecan halves, gently pressing onto surface. 

Bake at 350o for 30 minutes. (Brownies will not test done.) Sprinkle chocolate chips over warm brownies, gently pressing onto surface. Cool completely. Cut into bars.
