Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Dipped Marshmallows


  • Author: Shirley
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

Scale

Gather the following ingredients to make your Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Dipped Marshmallows:

  • 1215 large marshmallows (preferably fluffy)
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate)
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (for sprinkling)

Instructions

Prepare the Marshmallows:

  1. Prepare a Tray: Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper to place the marshmallows on as they cool and set.
  2. Insert Sticks (Optional): If you prefer a more elegant presentation or want to make them easier to dip, insert lollipop sticks or skewers into each marshmallow.

Melt the Chocolate:

  1. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring each time until completely smooth. You can also use a double boiler to melt the chocolate if preferred.
  2. Dip the Marshmallows: Holding each marshmallow by the stick or with your fingers, dip it into the melted dark chocolate, coating about three-quarters of the marshmallow. Allow the excess chocolate to drip off.

Drizzle the Caramel:

  1. Drizzle with Caramel: After dipping in chocolate, drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the chocolate-covered marshmallows. You can use a spoon or pour the caramel into a squeeze bottle for more control.
  2. Sprinkle with Sea Salt: While the caramel is still soft, lightly sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the marshmallows for a sweet-salty flavor boost.

Let Set:

  1. Allow to Cool: Place the dipped marshmallows on the prepared parchment paper and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to allow the chocolate and caramel to set. This helps the marshmallows firm up and makes them easier to handle.
