Billionaire Bites Recipe

December 21, 2013 by Lisa Pinney

Oh, my gracious!!  These were so delicious !  
I promise it will be one of the best candies you’ll ever make–they’ll beg for more! 


Billionaire Bites

1 pkg (14oz) caramels
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
1 cup Rice Krispy cereal
Dipping chocolate
 
Line two baking sheets with waxed paper; 
butter or spray the paper with Pam…
you do not want to skip this step…
the caramels will stick to the waxed paper if you don’t!!
 In a large heavy saucepan, combine the caramels and heavy cream; cook and stir over low heat until smooth. 
Stir in pecans and cereal until coated. 
Drop by half-teaspoonfuls onto prepared pans. 
Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until firm.
Meanwhile, in a microwave, melt dipping chocolate; 
stir until smooth. 
Dip candy into chocolate, coating all sides; allow excess to drip off. Place on prepared pans. Refrigerate until set. 
**********The cast of delicious ingredients…


Place the caramels in your saucepan and add the heavy cream…


Melt over low heat until it’s all creamy like this…


Add the chopped pecans…



and the Rice Krispy’s…



Scoop it into small balls and place on wax paper sprayed with non-stick spray…



Melt your chocolate and white chocolate melts in the microwave 
in 30 second increments until smooth and creamy…
dip each candy in the chocolate…

Place on the wax paper to set…

I decorated the white chocolate ones with chopped nuts 
and the chocolate ones with a drizzling of white chocolate…

So many possibilities!  
Yum!
