Ingredients:

1 cup pecan halves

1 cup soft caramel candies

1 tablespoon cream (to soften the caramel)

8 oz semisweet or dark chocolate, chopped

Optional: sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions:

Prepare the pecans:

Arrange pecan halves in small clusters of about 4-5 pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet. These will act as the base of your patties.

Melt the caramel:

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the caramel candies and cream. Stir continuously until the caramels have melted and the mixture is smooth.

Spoon the melted caramel over each pecan cluster, ensuring they are well coated but maintaining a patty shape. Allow the caramel to cool and set slightly.

Melt the chocolate:

Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), or in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.

Assemble the patties:

Dip each caramel pecan cluster into the melted chocolate using a fork, letting the excess drip off.

Return the coated patties to the parchment paper. Optionally, top each with a pecan half for decoration and sprinkle a little sea salt on top while the chocolate is still wet.

Set the chocolate:

Allow the chocolate to harden completely at room temperature, or speed up the process by chilling the patties in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Serve or store:

Once the chocolate has set, serve your pecan caramel patties. They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

These chocolate pecan caramel patties are perfect for sharing during the holidays or as a special treat for chocolate and nut lovers. Enjoy your candy making!
