Sorry about the delay in posting a recipe--life has been a bit crazy. Right after I made these for my work Christmas party, I fought another round of bronchitis. Then, last week, I flew to Vegas and got married <3
Ok, enough about all that....onto the recipe!! I found this recipe here: Turtle Tassies. I used dark chocolate chips and walnuts instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips and pecans, because that is what I had :)
Turtle Tassies
1 Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix
butter and egg called for on the pouch
3/4 cup dark chocolate chips
2 (14 ounce) bags caramels, unwrapped
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Make
dough according to package directions. Make 36 (1-inch) balls.
Press
each ball into a the bottom of each mini muffin cup and press up the
sides.
Bake
8-9 minutes or until edges just start to brown. Meanwhile in a small
saucepan place unwrapped caramels and cream and heat until melted.
Reduce heat to low.
Remove
pans from oven. Using the back of wooden spoon press down the sides and
bottom of each cup to flatten being careful not to make holes.
Bake for 2 minutes more. Remove from oven and immediately place 4-5 chocolate chips in each cup.
Spoon
about 1 Tablespoon of caramel into each cup and immediately top with walnuts and slightly press them down.
Cool for five minutes then remove
with narrow spatula or a knife.
Makes 36 turtle tassies.
