Salted Caramel Cracker Bites
Ingredients:
-
1 sleeve of square buttery crackers (like Ritz or similar) — about 40 crackers
-
1 cup caramel bits or soft caramel candies, unwrapped
-
2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
-
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk chocolate, if you prefer)
-
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions:
-
Prepare the baking sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. -
Arrange the crackers
Lay the crackers flat in a single layer on the baking sheet. -
Add caramel
Place about 1 caramel bit or a small piece of soft caramel candy on each cracker. -
Melt caramel
Heat the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, or until the caramel is soft and slightly melted. -
Cool slightly
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let it cool for about 3-5 minutes, just until caramel firms up a bit but is still soft. -
Melt chocolate
While caramel is cooling, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler. -
Top crackers with chocolate
Spoon or pipe melted chocolate over each caramel-topped cracker. -
Add sea salt
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt over the chocolate on each bite. -
Set and chill
Place the baking sheet in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes until the chocolate hardens. -
Serve and enjoy!
Once set, transfer to a serving plate or store in an airtight container.
