This are a very tasty candy, I used a chocolate Liquor instead of the buttersctoch schnapps. This is very yummy. The candy mixture goes together easy. I did have trouble dipping the candy in the chocolate. Found it was better to spread the chocolate onto the candy turtles. Thank you Rita for posting the recipe.
