Decadent, melt-in-your-mouth truffles with a rich salted caramel and white chocolate fudge center, encased in a snap-perfect chocolate shell.
Unsalted butter – 60 grams
Sweetened condensed milk – 240 ml
Brown sugar – 90 grams
White chocolate, broken – 150 grams
Sea salt – 1/2 teaspoon
Dark or milk chocolate for coating – 300 grams
Crushed peanuts or hazelnuts (optional) – for garnish
Combine butter, condensed milk, and brown sugar in a medium bowl or saucepan.
Cook using the microwave (5-6 mins total) or stovetop until the mixture reaches 112°C (234°F).
Stir in white chocolate pieces and sea salt until completely smooth.
Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours until the fudge is firm.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll into smooth balls.
Melt the coating chocolate and dip each ball using a fork.
Place on parchment paper, top with nuts if desired, and chill for 30 minutes to set.
• Use a candy thermometer to ensure the caramel reaches exactly 112°C for the perfect texture.
• If the caramel is too hard to roll, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• High-quality chocolate with at least 60% cocoa solids works best for the coating.
