Caramels with cashews and chocolate
Description
This recipe is perfect for nut and chocolate lovers, as it allows you to make incredibly delicious caramels with cashews and chocolate. Be sure to melt the chocolate over a double boiler on low heat to prevent it from curdling during preparation. You can substitute the cashews with walnuts or hazelnuts—this will make the candies even more flavorful. Be sure to let them set in the refrigerator so the candies hold their shape.
