- Cut a piece of the Peter's Caramel Loaf and melt in one of two methods: Either place in the microwave (in a microwave safe bowl) and run at a low power in 30-second intervals, stir, and repeat until melted to a uniform state. OR place the caramel in a double boiler and run the stovetop at a low heat until the caramel is consistently melted.
- Allow the caramel to slightly drop in temperature, then scoop a spoonful onto each cluster of pecans. Once complete, set aside
- Melt the chocolate in one of two ways: Either place the chocolate in the microwave (in a microwave safe bowl) and run at a low power in 30-second intervals, stir, and repeat until melted to a uniform state.
