Chocolate-Flavored Caramel Candies
- 200 ml Low-fat whipped cream
- 100 ml Milk
- 100 grams Soft light brown sugar
- 35 grams Butter
- 30 grams Cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Mizuame or starch-based sweet syrup (like corn syrup)
- Use a teflon-coated thick-base pot.
- I used a T-fal brand pan about 28 cm in side.
- Add the milk, brown sugar, cocoa powder, honey, and syrup to the pot and mix well over low heat.
- Once the cocoa powder is well incorporated, add the whipped cream and butter.
- Mix from the bottom of the pot to get rid of the moisture, but be careful not to burn it.
- While mixing, you'll be able to see the bottom on the pot.
- The stiffness and smell will be changing.
- Add a little cold water, and if it stiffens up, it's OK.
- Pour the mixture into a pan lined with parchment paper, allow to cool off, then store in the freezer for at least 20 minutes.
- Use a knife to cut into pieces of your desired size while it's still on the parchment paper.
- If it starts to melt while you're cutting it, put back into the freezer and harden before cutting again.
- If it's soft use a bamboo skewer to place on top of a sheet and wrap up.
- The size of the baking sheet should be 9 x 6 cm.
