LOL, I would not care about the looks I want it to taste good, I sometimes can get a pretty look to somethings I make but just cant get that taste down, so I would rather have the taste then the looks too.  |

| What about using mini muffin tins with liners? coat the inside of the liners with a thin coat of chocolate, pour in the caramel, add nuts and more chocolate if you please (I would be tempted to leave the chocolate off the top and call them upside down turtles though!). Dust the liner with corn starch or powdered sugar if you're worried about the liner sticking. |
