Chocolate Dipped Caramels with Sea Salt Recipe

Chocolate Dipped Caramels with Sea Salt Recipe

  • 1 cup NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable shortening
  • 25 soft & chewy rectangular caramels, unwrapped
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  1. Line baking sheet with wax paper.
  2. Microwave morsels and vegetable shortening in small, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 1 minute; stir. The morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted; cool slightly.
  3. Dip caramel pieces, using a fork, into melted chocolate. Shake off or scrape excess chocolate against side of bowl. Place on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with sea salt. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until set.
