Ingredients
4 tsp
milk
1 pkg
(6 oz.) pecan halves (1-1/2 cups)
Instructions
Step 1
Microwave caramels and milk in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2-1/2 to 3 min. or until caramels are completely melted, stirring after each minute. Cool.
Step 2
Meanwhile, place nuts in mounded groupings of about 3 nuts each into 36 clusters, about 3 inches apart, on parchment-covered baking sheet.
Step 3
Spoon about 2 tsp. caramel sauce over center of each nut cluster. (Caramel sauce should "glue" the clusters together.)
Step 4
Freeze 15 min. or until caramel sauce is firm.
Step 5
Melt chocolate as directed on package. Dip nut clusters, 1 at a time, into chocolate, turning to completely coat nuts. Return to baking sheet. Refrigerate 15 min. or until chocolate is firm.
