Steps:
- Line two baking sheets or large platters with parchment paper. It's helpful if they will fit in either fridge or freezer.
- Make small piles of pecans, using 5 to 6 pieces per pile. Overlap the pecans some to reduce gaps so the caramel doesn't seep through.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, add the caramels, half of the cream (reserve the remainder), and heat on high power to melt. It will probably take about 3 to 4 minutes total, but you must stop and stir the mixture every 30 seconds so you don't burn it. Alternatively, you can melt caramels on the stove over low heat, using caution and stirring frequently. **(see notes below on melting the caramels)
- Add about 1 tablespoon caramel to the top of each pecan pile; set aside.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, add 8 ounces chocolate and heat to melt, about 1 minute on high power. Heat in 15-second increments until chocolate can be stirred smooth. I prefer working in smaller batches with chocolate and recommend doing the same and not heating all 16 ounces at once; melt additional chocolate as necessary.
- Add about 2 tablespoons chocolate to the top of each pecan cluster by dolloping it on top and letting it fall down the sides.
- Optionally add a pinch of sea salt to each Turtle.
- Allow Turtles to firm up at room temp (will take many hours) or in the fridge or freezer (about 15 minutes) before serving.

NO-BAKE ENERGY BITES
This is a healthy take on the traditional no bake cookies. So good and good for you! I am always asked for this recipe every time I make them. They are a hit with the kids and the adults, and always go quick! I store them in the freezer because I think they taste best frozen, but not necessary.

CHOCOLATE TIDBITS
Chocolaty, oaty, coconut fun. My kids eat them faster than I can get them out of the pot given the chance. I grew up eating these, my grandmother made them like a ritual, my husbands mother made them... Apparently the recipe came originally from a school penny sale cookbook...

- Add your favorite mix-ins: Feel free to experiment with different mix-ins to create your own unique tidbits. Some popular options include nuts, dried fruit, chopped bacon, and marshmallows.
- Be patient: Making chocolate tidbits takes time and patience. Be sure to let the chocolate cool and set completely before enjoying them.
