WW Friendly Chocolate Pecan Turtle Clusters Directions

  1. Toast the Pecans: In a large skillet, toast 2 1/2 cups of pecans over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until they darken slightly and become fragrant (about a few minutes).

  2. Prepare Baking Sheets: Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper and spray them with cooking spray. Form the pecans into clusters, using three nuts per cluster and leaving about an inch between each.

  3. Make the Caramel: In a medium saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce over medium-high heat. Stir in 1/2 cup of brown sugar substitute, 1/2 cup of sugar-free light corn syrup, and 7 ounces of homemade sweetened condensed milk. Cook while stirring until the mixture thickens (around 235°F).

  4. Add Vanilla: Stir in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

  5. Drizzle Caramel: Quickly drizzle about 1 1/2 teaspoons of caramel over each nut cluster, ensuring the caramel binds the nuts together.

  6. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 12 ounces of sugar-free chocolate chips, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.

  7. Mix in Coconut Oil: Add 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil to the melted chocolate, allowing it to melt for a minute before stirring until smooth.

  8. Top with Chocolate: Spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons of melted chocolate over each caramel-topped nut cluster, spreading it to create a lovely finish.

  9. Set and Serve: Allow the chocolate to set. Once hardened, serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
