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.
