With Valentine's Day right around the corner, nothing says love better than chocolate, and nothing says it better than a HOMEMADE chocolate treat!  These "Millionaires"  (A.K.A. turtles) are super easy to make.  Only 4 ingredients to chocolate-caramel candy goodness!
Only 4 ingredients away from Millionaires! 
NOTE:  On my second batch, I was able
to find unwrapped caramels and
unwrapped kisses on the baking aisle. 
Time Saver!

Melt caramels and milk until smooth.

Stir pecan halves into melted caramel mixture.

Drop caramel-pecan mixture by
teaspoonfuls onto a buttered baking sheet.
