Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Bugles
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 30 pieces Caramel candies
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.25 cups Sprinkles
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Spread the Bugles out evenly on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the caramel candies and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth (about 2 minutes total).
Using a spoon, drizzle the melted caramel over the Bugles. Ensure that each piece gets a touch of caramel.
Allow the caramel to set for about 5 minutes.
In another microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth (about 1-1.5 minutes total).
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the caramel-coated Bugles. Use a small spoon or piping bag for a neater finish.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the Bugles with festive sprinkles and a light dusting of sea salt.
Let the candies sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up the chocolate.
Once set, carefully break apart any clusters and transfer the Bugle Candies into an airtight container for storage. Enjoy immediately or gift them!
