beow:
Ingredients (about 36 bon bons)
For the Bon Bons
- 2 cups crushed pretzels
- 1 cup Speculoos spread
- 2 cups marshmallow fluff
- 3 tbsp melted butter
- 1 cup caramel spread
For the Coating
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 cup vanilla flavored candy melt
(or dark chocolate)
For the Drizzle
- 1/2 cup caramel spread
- 1/2 cup vanilla flavored candy
melt
For the Toppings
- dark chocolate sprinkles
- chopped walnuts
- pretzel bits
Instructions
In a food processor chop up the
pretzels until you have 2 cups crushed pretzels.
Place the crushed pretzels in a stand
mixer and add the Speculoos spread, fluff, melted butter and caramel. Mix well,
until batter becomes a dough like consistency and can be molded.
Using your hands or a cake pop mold,
shape the batter into balls and place on wax paper. Place the balls in the
fridge for 1-2 hours until they are firm.
In a deep bowl, melt the chocolate
chips and the candy melt together in the microwave at 30 second intervals until
melted. Stir well so there are no lumps.
Using a fork or a candy dipping tool,
carefully dip the balls in the chocolate melt until well coated and then place
on a clean wax paper until the chocolate hardens. If needed, place balls back
in fridge for a few minutes.
Once chocolate is set, melt caramel
and candy melt in microwave at 30 second intervals until melted and stir well
until smooth. Place caramel in a frosting piping bag with tip or a ziplock bag
snipped at the corner to drizzle the caramel over the balls. Sprinkle with
toppings if desired.
