Check out these incredible new Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Caramels! Little bite sized squares of soft and smooth caramel filled chocolates. They come in dark and milk chocolate and I got my hands on both!
When I visited The Hershey Company last summer I got to watch one of the food scientists make their caramel and learn the secrets of how to make super soft and smooth caramel. And then I got to make my own. Best caramel I’ve ever had!
I immediately knew I wanted to stuff these caramels into something…like cookies 🙂 I used the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Caramels and stuffed them inside rich, chocolate pudding cookie cups!
You can use the milk or dark chocolate caramels (or maybe both)! These little Chocolate Caramel Cookie Cups are the perfect bite-sized indulgent treat, perfect for summer parties, and perfect for chocolate-caramel lovers.
