Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 batch brownies (homemade or store-bought, about 8x8 inch pan)
- 12 soft caramels
- 1 cup chocolate chips (milk or dark chocolate)
Coating and Binding Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating)
Garnish:
- Sea salt (for garnish)
Instructions
- Transform freshly baked brownies into fine crumbs inside a spacious mixing container, ensuring a uniform texture without large chunks.
- Create a silky caramel mixture by microwaving caramels with heavy cream, stirring every 15 seconds until achieving a smooth, glossy consistency.
- Integrate the crumbled brownie fragments with the warm caramel sauce, blending thoroughly until a moldable mixture forms.
- Gently shape the caramel-brownie blend into compact, uniform spheres approximately one inch in diameter, positioning each truffle on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Briefly chill the formed truffles in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to stabilize their structure and enhance cohesion.
- Melt chocolate chips combined with coconut oil, creating a glossy coating that will encase each truffle completely.
- Carefully immerse each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage, and delicately return to the parchment-lined surface.
- Sprinkle a subtle layer of flaky sea salt across the chocolate-coated truffles for a contrasting flavor profile.
- Refrigerate the truffles for approximately 10-15 minutes until the chocolate coating solidifies and becomes firm.
- Serve the truffles either chilled or at ambient room temperature for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Crumble brownies when completely cool to prevent sticky, messy texture and ensure clean, even breaking.
- Mix caramel slowly to avoid burning, creating smooth, silky consistency that blends perfectly with brownie crumbs.
- Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing and more consistent truffle formation, preventing cracking or uneven surfaces.
- Experiment with different chocolate coatings like dark, milk, or white chocolate to customize flavor profiles and match personal preferences.
