Sea Salt and Black Pepper Caramel Bites

salt and pepper caramels Sea Salt and Black Pepper Caramel Bites
This time of year, candy consumption is pretty kid-focused. But why shouldnt grown ups have a little fun too? Here, sea salt and black pepper bring an unexpected twist to my very favorite candy. I just love the savory notes sea salt and fresh ground black pepper lend to the creamy, buttery, and oh-so-chewy caramel bites. Best of all? You can make these in minutes. Enjoy!

Sea Salt and Black Pepper Caramel Bites
makes 10 bites

20 Werthers Chewy Caramel Bites, unwrapped
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Line a baking sheet or platter with parchment paper. Set out your sea salt and ground black pepper.

Set up a double boiler, or use two pans that are sized appropriately. Fill the bottom pan with two inches of water, and turn heat to medium-high.

Add the caramels to the top pan, and keep a close eye. After about 7 minutes, they will begin to melt. Carefully stir until the mixture is nice and smooth, about 3 4 minutes more.

Drop the melted caramel in tablespoons onto the prepared parchment. As you go, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper, and gently press into the caramel. Cool for 5 minutes, and serve.

Salted caramel has been one of the hottest food trends this past year; why not bring that delicious sweet and salty to a classic caramel apple? The sweet, crisp juiciness of the apples make the perfect ballast to rich caramel and crunchy sea salt; starting with Werthers chewy caramels, these are also quick to make, and fun for kids to help make sure theyre sparing with the sprinkle of sea salt, and add it quickly, before the caramel sets.

Bagged apples tend to be smaller than those you buy from the bins at the grocery store they make better caramel apples, easier to handle and less caramel to coat! If you like, jazz up your apples with a sprinkle of chopped salted peanuts instead.

Salted Caramel Apples

5-6 small tart apples
1 158 g pkg. Werthers Original Chewy Caramels, unwrapped
1/4 cup heavy cream or 3 Tbsp. water
flaky sea salt

Wash and thoroughly dry the apples, and push a wooden or paper stick into the stem end of each.

In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, heat the caramels and cream or water over low heat or in the microwave, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth. Stir in a pinch of sea salt.

Dip each apple into the caramel mixture, turning to coat, and let the excess drip off before setting them stick-up on a piece of waxed or parchment paper. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt before the caramel sets. Makes 5-6 caramel apples; recipe can be easily doubled.
