Easy Crockpot Turtles
Instructions
-
Combine with Pecans: After 1 hour, stir the chocolate mixture until it is smooth and fully melted. Stir in the 4 cups of pecan halves until they are completely coated. Cover and cook on LOW for another 15 minutes.
-
Prepare the Muffin Tins: While the chocolate and pecans are warming, line your muffin tins with paper liners. Place one unwrapped caramel in the center of each liner.
-
Assemble the Turtles: Using a cookie scoop or a ¼-cup measuring spoon, spoon the warm chocolate-pecan mixture over each caramel, completely covering it.
-
Set the Candies: Allow the turtles to cool at room temperature until they are firm and solid. For faster setting, you can place the tins in the refrigerator for about 30-45 minutes.
-
Serve and Store: Once set, the turtles are ready to enjoy! Store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
Tips for Success:
-
Don’t Overcook: Resist the urge to cook the chocolate on high, as it can scorch. Low and slow is the key.
-
Rolo Alternative: For an even easier version, you can use a Rolo candy in place of the unwrapped caramel.
