And the adults as well as the kids will be just loving these great treats! If you love chocolate and cashews then this is the candy for you!!!

I got this recipe from Recipe Zaar

< 60 mins Candy
Low Sodium Candy
Heat the first heavy cream in a small sauce pan.
Bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
Place chocolate chips in a stainless steel bowl.
Pour hot cream over chocolate and stir with a rubber spatula.
Place paper muffin cups into a muffin pan. Pour ganache into paper cups ¼ inch thick.
Top with toasted cashews and cool in freezer.
For the caramel:.
Heat the second cream in a small pan up to the boil.
Shut off heat and keep warm.
In a large sauce pan, combine sugar water and lemon juice and cook to a medium caramel color. Be extremely careful — this will be ‘very hot’.
Remove from heat and carefully add the hot heavy cream.
Stir until a smooth caramel.
Caution, use a cooking vessel much larger than necessary because the hot caramel will boil up and could splatter.
Allow to cool to a honey like thickness.
Spoon the caramel on top of the cashews. Place back in freezer for 15 minutes.
Remove paper cups and place turtles on a wire rack.
Melt dark chocolate and spoon over turtles.

Dr. Pepper Pralines
Posted on 10.31.07 by itscrazydelicious @

I just love Dr. Pepper. That is definately my soda of choice by all means. So here is a great recipe that I will be trying tonight…it is called Dr. Pepper Pralines. These look so easy to make so I am really hoping that I am right! Because if these come out good I have a anniversary party that I have to go to and I think these would go over really great as candies to munch on before the dinner. I am in charge of the little things before dinner…so this should be easy :)

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup Dr. Pepper
4 large marshmallows
2 to 3 cups pecan or walnut halves

In heavy saucepan mix together sugars and Dr. Pepper. Cook over low heat. stirring constantly until all sugar is dissolved, then cook stirring occasionally until soft ball stage (238 degrees F) is reached. Remove from heat, add marshmallows and nut meats together. Beat hard for 1 to 2 minutes until mixture starts to cream. Drop on wax paper in small balls, about 1 tablespoon at a time. They should flatten out around the edges leaving mound of nut meats in the center.

I got this from Recipe Gold Mine
