Line a 15" x 10" x 1" baking pan with foil, extending the

Pour melted chocolate mixture over caramel layer in pan,
spreading evenly. Sprinkle with nuts. Let stand until set.
Using the edges of the foil, lift uncut candy out of pan.

FROM THE TEST KITCHEN: If you prefer, use the microwave to
melt the caramels and chocolate. For caramels, in a medium
microwave-safe bowl combine caramels and half-and-half.

until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth, stirring
ever 30 seconds. For chocolate, in a small microwave-safe
bowl combine the chocolate pieces and shortening.
