Chocolate Truffle No-Bake Pie

I was in need of a dessert, and we had a reason to celebrate on Thursday! More to come on that...  But it's so dang hot everywhere I go {ha!}, I needed one that wasn't going to heat up this house! Enter in this lovely no-bake treat. :)

And of course, oh-so-easy.

3 Tbsp unsalted butter
Whipped cream, for serving
How to Make:
1. In a medium saucepan, cook the caramels and milk over medium-low heat, stirring often until the caramels melt and the mixture is smooth.

*the recipe called for crushed pecans under the layer of caramel, but we don't do pecans :)

Hubby stated it was the best pie he'd ever had. While I do not agree with this statement, it was pretty darn yummy! :)
