quote by jaykayell: Thanks gofforever, I will try to remember to vote for it every day. How did you come up with your recipe? Looks really good.
It took me a while to think up of something to make for this contest. I've often seen people put chocolate chips and nuts in tarts so I thought why not use a turtle instead. It has both chocolate and nuts rolled into one plus caramel.
Took me a while to get the filling mixture right so that it wouldn't be to runny. My friends and family didn't mind taste testing for me.
Thanks for the votes everyone and I sent a tip your way Lee03
