Ingredients
1cupBlue Diamond Salted Caramel Almonds
24soft caramel candiesunwrapped
2tablespoonsheavy cream
12ouncesdark or milk chocolateroughly chopped
Optional: Sea salt for sprinkling on top
Instructions
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the Blue Diamond Salted Caramel Almonds in clusters of 5 on the baking sheet and set aside.
Melt the caramel candies and heavy cream in a double boiler until the mixture is smooth. Drop spoonfuls of the caramel on top of each almond cluster and set aside to cool.
While the caramel is cooling, melt the chopped chocolate in the double boiler. Once completely melted, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate on top of the caramel almond clusters. If the chocolate doesn't fall down the sides, use the back of the spoon to spread it around a bit. Sprinkle with sea salt, if desired.
Transfer to the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to harden for about 30-45 minutes.
Notes
This recipe will yield about 25-28 turtles.The caramel will soften some at room temperature and can become a little sticky on the bottom. You can use some of the chocolate to dip the bottom of the turtle candies into as well.Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
