Turtle Chocolate
A very
very addictive chocolate with a combination of toasted pecan and caramel. Due
to the unusual shape of this chocolate it is called Turtle chocolate.
Very
tasty and easy to make. All you need are just
four ingredients to make a batch of homemade chocolate
turtles just like the ones bought from
a store.

Pecan / Walnut Halves
Semi-Sweet Chocolate
Soft Caramel Candies
Heavy Cream

1 Cup
¾ Cup
¾ Cup
2 Tbsp.

Method
1. Roast the pecan
halves on low heat for about 5 minutes.
2. Melt the caramel
candies with heavy cream on a double boiler. This took me about 10-12
minutes, stir at regular interval.
3. Arrange the
roasted pecan / walnut in a group of 5-6 on a wax paper. Pour a spoonful of
the melted caramel on top of the arranged group of nuts. The caramel should
partially cover the nuts to keep them in place, let this set for about 3-4
minutes.
4. Melt the
chocolate in the microwave. This took about 1.30 minutes. Stir the mixture
gently until smooth.
5. Spoon the melted
chocolate over the caramel coated nuts.
6. Allow the Turtle
Chocolate to cool and set fully. Store it in an air tight container.
