Ingredients
400 g dark chocolate
1 can (397 g) sweetened condensed milk
3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
20 soft caramel candies
2 tbsp heavy cream
Flaky sea salt for topping
Optional: sprinkles or crushed nuts for garnish
Instructions
1. In a saucepan over low heat, combine dark chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Stir constantly until smooth and glossy.
2. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
3. Pour the mixture into a parchment-lined dish and smooth the top. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
4. Once firm, scoop and roll the fudge into small balls using your hands or a cookie scoop.
5. In a small pan, melt caramel candies with heavy cream over low heat until silky.
6. Drizzle warm caramel over each truffle using a spoon or piping bag.
7. Immediately sprinkle sea salt over the top before the caramel sets.
8. Let the truffles sit for 10–15 minutes until set, then serve or store.
Notes
Always use high-quality chocolate for a smooth, luxurious finish.
Don’t skip the parchment paper—it makes removing the fudge clean and easy.
Greasing your hands slightly while rolling prevents the fudge from sticking.
