Ingredients

  • 2-3 oranges peeled and separated into segments
  • 4 ounces (113 grams) chocolate of your choice
  • Roasted pecans chopped * see note
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Caramel sauce

Instructions

  • Melt the chocolate by adding to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds at a time until melted. You can also add to small saucepan over low heat, stirring until melted.
  • Dip each orange segment into the chocolate halfway and drain off the excess chocolate. Place on a cooling rack or a parchment lined tray.
  • While the chocolate is still melted, add pecans and salt (so they stick). Refrigerate 10-15 minutes until the chocolate has firmed.
  • Drizzle with caramel sauce and enjoy! Or, keep them in a good, air tight container refrigerated for 3 to 4 days.
