Ingredients
- 2 cups pecan halves

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange pecan halves into small clusters (4–5 per cluster) on the baking sheet.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the caramels with heavy cream, stirring constantly until smooth.

- Let the caramel set slightly.

Notes
- Use dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
