Whole pecans filled with a sugar free caramel sauce, dipped in homemade dark chocolate.
So after making the Chocolate-Drizzeled Caramel Filled Pecans yesterday, I got inspired to go a step further and dip each one of the caramel filled pecans in chocolate.
I dipped mine in a dark homemade chocolate, but you could also melt your favorite dark chocolate to dip them into.
This is an easy to make candy that tastes delicious and could be a great gift for a special occasion. Just place them all in a cute wooden box with a note.... I decorated mine with dried Goji Berries.
