the way that i use is:
$( "body" ).append("<div class='testDiv'></div>").find( ".testDiv" );

Thus the created element will be returned

I usually code that like the following to save one expensive search 
operation and code duplication like the class name:

var div = $('<div class="test"></div>').appendTo(document.body);
