How To make Turtles On The Run

Keto Caramel Candy Recipes- Twix & Turtles

I love Halloween and candy is really a big weakness for me. I don't understand how people can just have hoards of peanut butter cups and just let them sit there for a year (cough cough, my husband) drives me crazy!!! Especially if I don't have keto alternatives on hand. The store bought candy is ok and will curb the craving for awhile but they are nothing compared to the homemade minimal ingredient candies. I feel like the store bought stuff just has so much weird stuff added to it that it just tastes not real. I've had HighKey pecan caramel clusters and they are ok but still a kind of weird taste to it, same with slim fast ones. So I bring you my version of Twix and Turtles (pecan caramel clusters).

Chocolate Coconut Turtles recipe

Hello everyone,
I know its been a while since my last video but now I'm back with a new recipe just in time for the summer season, Chocolate Coconut Turtles with Macadamia Nuts. I hope you enjoy this tasty, coconut treat!
Thanks and God Bless

Recipe:
1/3 Cup of Soften Salted Butter
1/3 Cup of Brown Sugar
3 Eggs
1 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
1 Can of Sweeten Condensed Milk
14 Ounces of Shredded Coconut
1/3 Cup of Flour
2 Cups of Dark Chocolate Candy Melts
6 Ounces of Chopped Macadamia Nuts

Chocolate Turtles

Delicious chocolate ganache topping homemade soft chewy caramel, topping crunchy pecans! The homemade caramel is so worth making!

Start by placing through your baking trays on your counter and placing parchment on them. Or, butter them very well.

Caramel recipe:
Place two Cups Half and half or heavy cream into a deep pot. Bring to just warm temperature on medium heat. Remove one cup and set aside.

Add 2 cups of sugar
1 teaspoon of salt
1 Cup karo syrup
Mix well and stir constantly until mixture boils.

Add back in the half-and-half or cream very slowly so that the mixture never stops boiling. 

Add in 1/3 cup of butter in pieces so that the mixture never stops boiling.

Stir occasionally on medium heat until a ball forms when placed in ice water. If you have a candy thermometer bring mixture to 248°, then take off heat and set aside while you make the ganache.

Ganache:
Place one cup of heavy cream or half-and-half into your microwave until it’s hot but not boiling, about one minute to 1 1/2 minutes. Then add in a cup of chocolate chips and mix well until mixture combines and is glossy.

Take a large spoon and cover each set of pecans with a spoonful of the caramel until they’re all covered, then go back with the caramel that’s left and re-top until your caramel is all gone.

Use an offset spatula or a butter knife to spread ganache on top of the caramel and you’re done!

Enjoy this recipe dedicated to my mother Sherry who made this for us all every Christmas!
