Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1/2 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup of caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts
- 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt
- 1/4 cup of butter
Instructions
To make this candy, begin by melting the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once the butter is melted, stir in the chocolate chips, stirring constantly until the chips are completely melted. Once the chips are melted, add the caramel sauce and stir to combine. Then stir in the chopped walnuts and the sea salt. Reduce the heat to low and continue to stir until the mixture is combined and smooth. Then remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly before pouring it into a greased 8x8 inch pan.
Once the mixture is in the pan, spread it evenly across the bottom. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it cool for at least one hour before cutting it into small pieces. The candy can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks or in the freezer for up to three months.
Notes
When melting the butter, make sure to keep an eye on it and stir often to avoid burning it. If the butter begins to brown, reduce the heat and continue stirring. The caramel sauce can be purchased in the baking section of most grocery stores. If you don’t have walnuts on hand, you can substitute any other type of nut such as almonds or pecans. If you’d like to make the candy sweeter, you can add a tablespoon of honey or brown sugar to the mixture before pouring it into the pan.
