Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 4 oz butter
- 8 oz heavy cream
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes) ()
- 1.5 oz cream cheese
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp caramel extract
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- course sea salt (for sprinkling on top)
- 3.5 - 6 oz 85% dark chocolate or sugar free chocolate (***)
Instruction
- Combine the butter, cream, and sweetener in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook until light brown and thickened stirring frequently. This takes 10-15 min.
- Stir in the extracts, cream cheese, and salt. Stir until the cream cheese is thoroughly incorporated. Set aside to cool to room temperature and thicken further.
- Melt the chocolate in the microwave or in a double boiler. I do it in the microwave stirring every 30 seconds. Put a little in the bottom of each mold and spread it up the sides. Put in the fridge to harden. Do one more layer of chocolate. Harden in the fridge.
- Fill the chocolate cups 3/4 full with the room temperature caramel. Put in the fridge to chill the caramel. After about 5 min it should be cool enough to put chocolate on top. You can cover the caramel or just drizzle lines on. Sprinkle with a little coarse sea salt. Store in the fridge.
