These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using a darker chocolate next time.

I made these yesterday and they turned out great! I used dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate and they were still delicious. I also added a pinch of salt to the caramel, which I think really enhanced the flavor.
