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.
 
Setting Time
30 Minutes
Cooking Time
10 Minutes
Serves
8-10 Pieces
Ingredients
 
 
 
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.
