These Salted Caramel Fudge Truffles are ultra-smooth, made with creamy caramel, chocolate, and a sprinkle of sea salt. They’re no-bake and require just a few simple ingredients, making them the perfect quick and delicious homemade treat!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 12 oz (340g) soft caramels (such as Werther’s or Kraft)
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (170g) dark or milk chocolate, chopped
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup (50g) cocoa powder or melted chocolate (for coating)

Instructions

Melt the Caramel & Chocolate

  1. In a heatproof bowl, combine unwrapped caramels and heavy cream.
  2. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  3. Stir in chopped chocolate and butter, mixing until melted.
  4. Add vanilla extract and sea salt, stirring well.

2. Chill & Shape the Truffles

  1. Pour the caramel mixture into a shallow dish and refrigerate for 1–2 hours, until firm enough to scoop.
  2. Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, roll into small balls.

3. Coat the Truffles

  1. Roll truffles in cocoa powder or dip in melted chocolate for a glossy finish.
  2. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt before the chocolate sets.

4. Chill & Serve

 

  1. Refrigerate for 30 minutes until fully set.
  2. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Notes

  • Want an extra crunch? Roll the truffles in finely chopped nuts.
  • Make ahead! These truffles freeze well for up to 3 months.

 

  • Prefer a boozy twist? Add 1 tbsp of bourbon or rum to the mixture before chilling
