Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place 3 pecans together into a triangle shape.
Add the milk, syrup, oil, sugar, and salt to a saucepan. Boil mixture for 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low, then stir continuously for 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from the heat, then stir in the vanilla.
Pour caramel in a small bowl or container and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Spoon about 1-2 teaspoons of caramel over each cluster, then allow to set. Dip your spoon into a bowl of water before scooping up caramel for mess-free pouring.
Melt the chocolate and oil in a small saucepan on stovetop. Stir until smooth. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then pour about a teaspoon of chocolate over top of the caramel. Sprinkle sea salt over the top.
