How to Make Texas Millionaires
- In a heavy saucepan over low heat, combine unwrapped caramels, butter, and water. Stir constantly until caramels are completely melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in pecan halves. Let the mixture cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto lightly greased wax paper. (For smaller candies, use a teaspoon).
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or freeze for 20 minutes, until the caramel candies are firm.
- In a separate small, heavy saucepan, melt chocolate chips and candy coating (if using) over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and melted.
- Dip the cooled caramel candies into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
- Place the chocolate-covered candies back onto lightly greased wax paper.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
