Ingredients
  

For the Fudge Base
  • 1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk Try dairy-free condensed milk for a vegan option.
  • 1 cup Caramel Sauce Opt for homemade or a premium jarred version.
  • 2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips Dark chocolate can be swapped for richness.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Use vegan butter for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Always choose pure vanilla for the best results.
For the Coating
  • 1 cup Melting Chocolate or Couverture Chocolate Ensure it’s high quality.
  • 1 teaspoon Flaky Sea Salt Feel free to skip for less saltiness.
Optional Decoration
  • 1 tablespoon Caramel Drizzle Use a thicker caramel for better visual appeal.

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Spatula
  • Parchment paper
  • microwave or double boiler

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, over low heat, blend the sweetened condensed milk, caramel sauce, unsalted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir continuously for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
  2. Remove the saucepan from the heat and mix in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir constantly for 2-3 minutes until melted and thick.
  3. Pour the fudge mixture into a parchment-lined tray, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours until firm.
  4. Once chilled, cut the fudge into squares and roll them into bite-sized balls. Chill for an additional 15 minutes.
  5. Melt the couverture or melting chocolate until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly before dipping.
  6. Carefully dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place back on the parchment-lined tray.
  7. While chocolate is still warm, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top. Drizzle with caramel sauce for decoration.
  8. Allow the dipped truffles to set at room temperature or refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.
