Turtle Bites

I made these for Care Group last week. They're so yummy. We normally make them during Christmas time.

Turtle Bites
Caramel Squares
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Pecans

Cover a baking sheet with wax paper. Grease the wax paper with cooking spray. Melt your caramel, adding the slightest amount of water. Individually dip the pecans into the caramel, so that most of the nut is covered. Place each dipped pecan onto your greased wax paper. Once the pan is full, place it in the freezer for about 8 minutes or so, allowing the caramel to mostly harden. Then melt your chocolate. Dip the caramel pecans into the chocolate, completely covering the nut. Place the pecans back onto the wax paper. Again, once the pan is full, place it in the freezer for about 8 minutes or so. The chocolate should be hardened. Keep in frig (in Ziploc bag) until serving. This allows the candy to stay mostly hard, but you wont' chip a tooth on it. :)
