Ingredients

Scale

Truffle Base

  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup salted caramel sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Coating

  • 1 cup dark or milk chocolate (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, salted caramel sauce, and white chocolate chips until well combined.
  2. Heat Mixture: Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
  3. Add Sea Salt & Chill: Stir in the sea salt, then pour the mixture into a lined baking dish. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
  4. Shape Truffles: Once chilled, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into smooth, bite-sized balls on a parchment-lined sheet.
  5. Melt Coating Chocolate: Melt the dark or milk chocolate either in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.
  6. Coat Truffles: Dip each truffle ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage. Place them back onto the parchment paper and let them set.
  7. Optional Finishing Touch: Before the coating sets completely, sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on top for an extra burst of salty flavor.

Notes

  • Use high-quality caramel sauce for best flavor.
  • White chocolate chips can be substituted with chopped white chocolate bars.
  • Make sure the truffle mixture is fully cooled and firm before shaping.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • To smooth the coating, gently tap off excess chocolate after dipping.
  • For a dairy-free version, use dairy-free chocolate and caramel alternatives.
