These delicious caramel cups are not only totally decadent, they’re actually easy to make! Don’t let the thought of homemade caramel scare you! It’s actually super easy and the method below doesn’t require a candy thermometer or any special equipment or strange ingredients! There are two easy ways you can prepare these cups… you can start with a mold for peanut butter cups or you can use muffin liners (either regular or mini). If you choose to use muffin liners or candy liners be sure to choose the foil ones. The cups do pop out of the molds a little easier than the cups. If using the cups you want to ensure that the initial chocolate layer has no holes or gaps because if the caramel leaks out, it will stick to the liner. If you do have any trouble removing the cups from the foil liners, you can dip the bottom into a bowl of hot water for less than 1 second and they will slide right out.. but note that this will only work with foil liners. To make these extra delicious, it is worth the extra splurge for a very high quality chocolate… the better the chocolate, the better the end result! You can use dark or milk for these, I personally love milk chocolate but find that dark is best in this recipe!
