Ingredients (Makes 12 Dessert Cups)

• 12 Lang’s Chocolates Dessert Cups

• 1 cup salted caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

• ½ cup heavy cream

• 4 oz milk chocolate, finely chopped

• 1 cup whipped cream (freshly whipped or stabilized)

• Sea salt flakes (optional, for garnish)

---

Instructions

1. Make the Ganache

• Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to steam and just starts bubbling at the edges (do not boil).

• Pour hot cream over chopped milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes.

• Stir slowly until smooth, glossy, and fully combined. Let the ganache cool until slightly thickened but still pourable.

2. Add the Salted Caramel

• Spoon about 1 tablespoon of salted caramel sauce into the base of each chocolate dessert cup.

3. Layer with Ganache

• Spoon or pipe the milk chocolate ganache over the caramel layer, filling about three-quarters of the cup.

• Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes so the ganache sets just enough to hold its shape.

4. Top with Whipped Cream

• Pipe or dollop whipped cream on top of each dessert cup.

• Add a sprinkle of sea salt flakes for an elegant finishing touch.

5. Serve & Enjoy

• Keep chilled until ready to serve. Best enjoyed within 24 hours for the freshest presentation.

Helpful Tips & Variations

• Homemade Salted Caramel: If you’d like to make your own, combine sugar, butter, and cream in a saucepan until golden brown, then finish with a pinch of sea salt.

• Stabilized Whipped Cream: To keep whipped cream looking picture-perfect for longer, add a spoonful of powdered sugar or cream stabilizer while whipping.

• Make Ahead: You can prepare the caramel and ganache layers a day in advance. Add whipped cream just before serving.

• Flavor Variations: Swap salted caramel for raspberry jam, peanut butter mousse, or hazelnut spread for different taste experiences.

• Elegant Garnishes: Chocolate curls, caramel drizzle, or even gold leaf take this dessert from delicious to show-stopping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I make these in advance?
Yes! You can prepare the caramel and ganache layers up to a day ahead. Keep them covered in the fridge. Add whipped cream just before serving.

Q: Do I need to temper the ganache?
No. Ganache naturally sets smooth and creamy without tempering. Just be sure to let it cool before piping or spooning it into the cups.

Q: Can I freeze these?
Freezing is not recommended, as whipped cream and caramel can separate when thawed. They’re best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated.

Q: What if I don’t like salted caramel?
You can substitute dulce de leche, fruit preserves, or nut butters. The chocolate cups make a perfect blank canvas for any flavor combination.
