Salted Caramel Bites: The 3-Ingredient, 15-Minute Miracle That Tastes Like a Million Bucks! 

Ingredients

• 1 cup soft caramels (about 25–30 pieces)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream (or milk in a pinch)
• 1 cup pretzels or crushed shortbread cookies (your choice!)
• Flaky sea salt (optional but highly recommended)

Instructions

1. Melt the caramel:
   Place the soft caramels and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl.
   Microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
2. Mix it all together:
   Stir in the pretzels or crushed shortbread until everything is fully coated in the caramel.
3. Shape the bites:
   Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop bite-sized mounds onto a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
4. Add the magic:
   Sprinkle each bite with a pinch of flaky sea salt.
5. Chill:
   Pop them in the fridge for 10 minutes to firm up.

Enjoy!

Chewy, crunchy, sweet, salty — the perfect little treat that tastes way fancier than it is.
