Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate for 5-10 minutes or until set., In a small heavy saucepan, heat caramels and cream over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my biscotti didn't turn out as well as I expected. They were too hard.
