CARAMEL TRUFFLES
These candies disappear as fast as I can make them. The five-ingredient microwave recipe is easy and fun to make. When drizzled with white chocolate and packaged with ribbon, they're a pretty gift. -Charlotte Midthun, Granite Falls, Minnesota

LUXURIOUS CARAMEL TRUFFLES
Steps:
- First, make the caramel base. Combine the sugar, water, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved.
- Continue to heat and bring the mixture to a boil, brushing down the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystallization. Allow the mixture to cook until it turns a caramel color. Remove it from the heat once it reaches a medium-brown color.
- Meanwhile, heat the cream in a small saucepan until small bubbles form around the edges of the pan and it almost comes to a boil.
- Place the chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a medium heat-safe bowl.
- Return the caramel to the heat and pour the hot cream into the caramel (it is natural for this mixture to sputter as it is mixed). Stir, heating, until the caramel and cream are completely combined.
- Pour the caramel-cream into the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 1 minute to soften the chocolate, then stir gently until the mixture is well-combined. Cover the chocolate with cling wrap and cool to room temperature. Once it is cool, refrigerate until firm enough to scoop or pipe, about 2 hours.
- To form the truffles, use a candy scoop or a small spoon to scoop 1-inch truffles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Once all are scooped, dust your hands with cocoa powder and roll the balls of ganache between your palms to make them round.
- Refrigerate the tray of truffles for 1 to 2 hours, until firm enough to dip.
- Melt the chocolate candy coating in the microwave, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.
- Dip the formed truffles in the coating-using dipping tools or a fork-and return them to the baking sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the tops with chopped nuts, toffee bits, or Candied Cacao Nibs. Repeat for all truffles and chill in the refrigerator until set, about 15 minutes. Serve at room temperature and store excess in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

CHOCOLATE-COVERED CARAMEL NUT TURTLES
Steps:
- Combine the sugars, syrup, butter and 1 cup of the evaporated milk, and bring to a boil. Add the other cup of evaporated milk slowly, stirring constantly, and cook until it reaches 255 degrees on a candy thermometer. Add the vanilla and pecans and mix well. Pour into a 9 by 11-inch greased pan and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature, cut into squares then dip in chocolate. If you'd like to make a turtle, spoon dollops of the caramel pecan mixture onto a greased sheet pan, with 5 pecans in each mound (4 legs and head). Refrigerate to set, then dip in chocolate.;

Steps:
- In a dry heavy saucepan (about 3 1/2 quarts) cook sugar over moderate heat, stirring with a fork until melted, and swirl pan until sugar is a golden caramel. Remove pan from heat and add cream carefully (mixture will bubble up). Return pan to heat and simmer, stirring, until caramel is dissolved.
- Remove pan from heat and add chocolate, salt, and vanilla. Let mixture stand 5 minutes and stir until chocolate is melted. Transfer mixture to a bowl and cool, uncovered. Chill mixture, covered, 2 hours, or until firm.
- Coat truffles:
- Scoop out truffle mixture with a spoon and form into 1-inch balls. Roll truffles in 1/2 cup cocoa powder or coat with 1 cup pecans, pressing nuts slightly to adhere. (Alternatively, roll half of truffles in 1/4 cup cocoa powder and coat remaining truffles with 1/2 cup pecans.) Chill truffles on a tray lined with wax paper until firm, about 1 hour. Truffles keep in an airtight container, chilled, 2 weeks.

Steps:
- Heat hazelnut spread in metal bowl over saucepan of gently simmering water and stir until hazelnut spread is warm, smooth, and easily stirred, about 5 minutes. Remove bowl from heat.
- Dissolve sugar in water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Brush sides of pan with a moistened pastry brush occasionally as sugar mixture cooks. Increase heat to medium-high and bring syrup to a boil and cook until syrup is a deep amber color, brushing down sides and swirling saucepan occasionally to prevent scorching, about 4 minutes.
- Pour cream into the syrup while stirring. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring continually, until you have a smooth caramel, 5 to 10 minutes; gently stir into the melted hazelnut spread with 1/4 teaspoon sea salt.
- Refrigerate caramel mixture until firm, at least 3 hours.
- Spread cocoa powder into the bottom of a wide, shallow bowl.
- Scoop caramel mixture with a melon baller into 1 tablespoon portions; roll in the cocoa powder to coat; arrange onto a baking sheet.
- Cover truffle balls with plastic wrap and chill overnight or 8 hours.
- Line a 13x9x2-inch baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Heat chopped chocolate in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of gently simmering water, stirring frequently until chocolate is melted and smooth and the chocolate reaches a temperature of 115 degrees F (46 degrees c). Remove bowl from over water.
- Working quickly, submerge each truffle ball in the melted chocolate. Lift truffles from chocolate with a fork and tap fork against side of bowl to remove excess coating. Transfer truffle to foil-lined pan to cool. Repeat with remaining truffle balls.
- Sprinkle finished truffles lightly with 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt before the chocolate hardens. Let stand until coating sets completely, at least 1 hour.
