Holiday Candy Making

I love these treats filled with caramel, pecans and chocolate!!!  Great for gifts!!!

Texas Millionaires
Part of the Candy Assortment Included in My Christmas Gift Tins

1# caramels (50 Brach's)                                      3 cups pecans
2 Tbsp. butter                                              12oz. pkg. semi sweet chocolate chips
2 Tbsp. water                                               1/3 bar paraffin

Melt caramels with butter and water over low heat.  Add pecans and mix.  Spoon onto greased (I use Pam) waxed paper and let cool and set.  Melt chocolate chips and paraffin over double boiler or very low heat.  Dip each pecan cluster and put back on same greased waxed paper.  Let cool.  Makes about 35 pieces.
