Cooking Camp.....Salted Caramel Strawberries.

Yes, they taste as good as they look.

The kids helped me make them for a book club meeting last week. It was killing two birds with one stone, so to speak. They wanted to do a cooking camp session, and I needed help in the kitchen anyway! I had decided that we might start doing one recipe from our Southern Living magazine every month....and we went back to April's issue and found these.

I served them as dessert, alongside an almond caramel square, and they were delicious!

A whole bag of caramels in our house will not last long. As evidenced here:

"one for me, one for the bowl, one to eat now, one to save for later...."

• Here's how you know a recipe must be good....it calls for whipping cream.

• After a few minutes in the microwave, let the dipping and rolling commence.

• Can you imagine anything better than the taste of fresh ripened strawberries, sweet caramel, and salty nuts???

• A whole platter full of them.
