Peanut caramel turtle
1) Wait for it to freeze so you can eat it and
2) Be able to put the chocolate before they all disappear from the freezer.
I’ve got little mice passing in my freezer when they smell the homemade caramel.
These little bites are delicious straight outta the freezer and will keep perfectly in the freezer in an airtight container. I haven’t been able to figure out how long they keep, they disappear way too fast!
