Christmas is just 2 days away! Here is a recipe inspired by that tart little fruit that is indiginous to the great state of Wisconsin!
Cranberry Turtles
5 oz of pecan halves
12 caramels
2 oz of Craisins
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
On a cookie sheet arrange pecan halves together in groups of four, with one end of each pecan meeting at a center point of each group. Place approximately nine Craisins on top of each group of pecans.
Unwrap caramels and place them in a small mixing bowl. Microwave one minute on HIGH and stir. Continue to microwave caramels in 30-second intervals until melted. Work quickly in dropping approximately 1 teaspoon of caramel mixture over the top of each nut/Craisin formation.
Place the chocolate chips in a small mixing bowl. Microwave one minute on HIGH and stir. Continue to microwave chips on HIGH in 30-second intervals until melted. Drop approximately 1 tablespoon of chocolated over the tops of the caramel/nut/Craisin formation.
Yield: 1 dozen
