Christmas Tree Turtles

Christmas Tree Turtle Candy

Today I was really craving some Turtles. If you have never had Turtle candy, it is layered Chocolate, Pecans and Caramel. YUM.

A while back, I posted a really quick and easy method of making homemade caramels in the microwave in just 7 minutes. This makes it really quick to make homemade turtle candy. These Christmas Tree Turtle Candies would make great neighbor gifts for Christmas or a sweet treat to bring to a party.

The fun thing is, you can make any shape that you want, like Spiders on Halloween, Bunny Rabbit on Easter, Hearts on Valentines Day. Any way you make them, they taste amazing!
