Description

Decadent, nutty, and just the right amount of gooey, these Chocolate Pecan Turtle Clusters are the perfect treat!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup pecan halves
  • 1 cup soft caramel candies
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast pecans on a baking sheet at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, then let cool.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt caramel candies with heavy cream, stirring until smooth.
  3. Arrange pecan piles on parchment paper, spoon melted caramel over each.
  4. Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring until smooth.
  5. Spoon melted chocolate over caramel-pecan clusters and sprinkle with sea salt.
  6. Let clusters set at room temperature or in the fridge until chocolate hardens.

Notes

Toasting the pecans adds an extra depth of flavor. Refrigerate if you prefer firmer chocolate!
