CHOCOLATE PECAN TURTLE CLUSTERS


 

Ingredients:

  • 48 pecan halves (use more if pieces are small)
  • 28 individually wrapped caramels
  • 1 tablespoon cream
  • 1 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips (such as Ghirardelli)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)

Method:

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Arrange the pecan halves on the parchment paper in clusters of four, resembling an "X" shape with the four legs sticking out.

3. Unwrap the caramels and place them in a microwave-safe bowl. Ensure the bowl is large enough for easy stirring.

4. Add the cream to the caramels. Microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds. Stir well. If needed, continue microwaving in 15-second intervals at 50% power until the caramel is completely melted and smooth. Stir occasionally.

5. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of caramel into the center of each pecan cluster. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes.

6. In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave at 50% power for 1 minute. Stir well to avoid overheating. Continue microwaving in 15 to 30 second intervals at 50% power until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Stir occasionally to ensure even melting.

7. Pour the melted chocolate over the caramel-covered pecans. Use the back of a spoon to spread the chocolate evenly over each cluster.

8. Allow the chocolate turtles to harden completely, which may take several hours. For faster setting, place the turtles in the refrigerator.

9. Once hardened, enjoy your delicious chocolate turtles!
