Description

Chocolate and caramel candies are a combination of two classic flavors that go together like a match made in heaven. The combination of rich, creamy chocolate and sweet, sticky caramel is a classic flavor combination that can be found in many desserts, but it’s especially delicious when it comes in the form of a candy. These delicious treats are easy to make and are perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re having a party, a special event, or just want something sweet, these chocolate and caramel candies will hit the spot.

Ingredients

To make these chocolate and caramel candies, you’ll need:

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted

Instructions

To make these chocolate and caramel candies, start by combining the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the corn syrup, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, and salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and all of the ingredients are combined.

Next, line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly into the pan and sprinkle with the toasted pecans. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let the chocolate cool and set, about 1 hour. Once the chocolate is firm, cut it into small squares or other desired shapes.

To make the caramel, combine the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is smooth and bubbling. Remove the pan from the heat and pour the caramel over the cooled chocolate. Spread the caramel evenly over the chocolate and return the pan to the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, until the caramel is firm.

Once the candy is firm, remove it from the pan and either serve or store in an airtight container. Enjoy!

Notes

If you don’t have light corn syrup, you can use dark corn syrup or even honey as a substitute. You can also use any type of nuts you’d like, such as almonds or walnuts.
