Crockpot Turtles Candy is an incredibly simple and impressive candy. A rich chocolaty recipe that you simply dump ingredients into your slow cooker, stir and scoop. Then garnish and gift (or serve). It doesn't get much easier than that! PREP TIME: 25 MINSCOOK TIME: 2 HOURTOTAL TIME: 2 HOURS AND 25 MINS

16 ounces whole raw pecans (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish)
24 ounces chocolate flavored candy coating (almond bark or candiquik)
2 ounces (1/2 bar) German chocolate bar (by Baker's)
1 (11 ounce) bag caramel bits

16 ounces whole raw pecans (reserve 1/2 cup for garnish) 24 ounces chocolate flavored candy coating (almond bark or candiquik) 2 ounces (1/2 bar) German chocolate bar (by Baker's) 1 (11 ounce) bag caramel bits 2 cup s semi-sweet chocolate chips

Layer pecans, then candy coating, then chocolate bar into crockpot (I used a 5 quart). Cover. Cook for 1 hour on low temperature. Do not stir. After 1 hour stir mixture and continue to cook, stirring every 15-20 minutes for another hour (a total of 2 hours). Once mixture has completely come together, stir in caramel bits and turn off the heat. Cover for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile line counter top or table with a long piece of parchment paper.
Stir. Use 2 table spoons to scoop out candy from crockpot and scoop it onto parchment paper. Make sure candy is not touching.
Meanwhile, melt 2 cups chocolate chips and chop 1/2 cup pecans. Drizzle over turtles and garnish with chopped pecans.
Allow to set completely.
Serve and enjoy
NOTES
You can double the recipe, but the caramels will start to get a little gritty in the candy if not scooped out quickly enough. So, be careful.
