2. Arrange the macadamia nuts into 24 groups on the cookie sheets.
3. In a small saucepan, melt the caramels with the cream over low heat for 5 to 7 minutes, or until smooth, stirring constantly.
4. Spoon the caramel mixture over each nut group quickly while still hot (reheat if caramel gets too thick).

6. Drizzle the chocolate over the caramel and nuts and let stand until firm.
