Caramel filled chocolates

Caramel filled chocolates

These are so good.

They are vegan, gluten free and nut free.

Some cheap to make once you have moulds.

Ingredients

  • 100g chocolate- I used cheap lidl dark chocolate that’s dairy and soya free. Any chocolate will work so whatis your safe chocolate.
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil – this makes it easier to spread in the mould.
  • You might need more/less chocolate depending on size of your moulds.
  • Use a brush and do a thin layer in mould.
  • When it sets, brush on another layer. Keep doing this until you are happy mould is fully covered. Hold up to the light to make sure there’s no missed bits.
  • Caramel
  • The cream from half a can of tinned coconut, this doesn’t need to be accurately measured.
  • 100g brown sugar – white will also work but will slightly change the flavour
  • 2 tablespoon of water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup/golden syrup
  • 100g dairy free butter
  • Put all ingredients in to saucepan. Simmer on medium heat for 20/30 minutes until golden brown. Stir regularly. Leave to cool fully.
  • Once chocolate is set, fill with cold caramel.
  • Cover with more chocolate. Once fully set remove from moulds

Eat. 😋😋

75g/â…“ cup dairy free butter

*** Method ***

  • Put the condensed milk, caster sugar, syrup and butter into a saucepan.
  • Stir constantly over a low heat until sugar melt. Stir constantly to prevent burning. this will take approximately 10/15 minutes.
  • The mixture will thicken as the sugar and syrup melts.
  • Continue stirring over medium heat until colour changes to a ‘caramel’. This will not take very long so watch carefully as it can easily burn.
  • Put in moulds to set or spread on line tray to set. Leave overnight before removing from moulds or cutting.
  • The fudge will keep for up to a week in a air tight container.

*** Alternatives ***

  • Add chopped nuts once you get the caramel colour.
