Ingredients

• 2 cups pecan halves
• 2 (12 ounce) bags chocolate chips

• 1/2 cup butter, softened

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Arrange pecans on a baking sheet.
3. Bake pecans in the preheated oven until fragrant and lightly browned, 7 minutes.
4. Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
5. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; grease with butter.
6. Combine caramels, water, and butter in a saucepan over low heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted and smooth. Fold in pecans.
7. Drop caramel mixture by the spoonful onto the prepared baking sheet. Allow to cool and harden.
