These decadent clusters of chocolate, pecans, peanut butter, and Lotus butter are the ultimate indulgent treat.
Yields 20 turtles
80 pecans
1/2 cup Gefen Creamy Peanut Butter
4 tablespoons Lotus butter
3/4 cup Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 teaspoons imitation vanilla extract
15 ounces (425 grams) semisweet baking chocolate
2 teaspoons Heaven & Earth Coconut Oil
Maldon salt (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
Place the pecans on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Combine peanut butter, Lotus butter, confectioners’ sugar, corn syrup, and vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat and place one tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture on the silicone mat. Repeat with the rest of the mixture, leaving some space between the dollops. Flatten them a bit and shape them, adding four pecans to each turtle. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the baking chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Place the chocolate in the microwave for one minute, then mix. Repeat in 30-second intervals until completely melted. Add the coconut oil to the melted chocolate.
Place the frozen turtles on a cooling rack and pour about one tablespoon of melted chocolate in the center of each turtle, making sure it covers the chewy mixture. Add a few Maldon salt granules on top of the turtles, if desired. Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the turtles from the cooling rack by releasing them from underneath the rack to avoid cracking the chocolate. Keep refrigerated until serving. These turtles are very freezer friendly.
