Valentine’s Day Edition: Chewy Chocolate Caramels – Krowki w Czekoladzie – Recipe #134

Ingredients:

• 1 can (300 ml) of sweetened condensed milk
• 2/3 cup of 10% cream (half and half)
• 4 tbs of butter
• 1 tsp of vanilla extract
• Chocolate Chips

Instructions:

1. Spray a loaf pan with a non stick spray, line with a parchment paper and then spray the paper. 
2. Transfer sweetened condensed milk, cream, butter and vanilla into heavy bottomed nonstick saucepan. 
3. Cook on a medium low heat until medium brown colour (around 20 – 25 minutes).
4. Transfer into prepared loaf pan and let it cool for about 20 min. Even out a bit with a rolling pin.
5. With a small cookie cutter cut shapes of your choice. I chose hearts for Valantine’s Day but you can choose any or you can simply cut it with a knife in to small rectangles or squares.
6. They are ready to eat now but I will add some chocolate 🙂
7. Melt your chocolate.
8. Poke a toothpick into your caramels and deep them in meted chocolate. 
9. Transfer on a cooling rack and let it set.

Enjoy!
