last week, i decided i would make an extra special treat for no particular reason – because sometimes you just have to do that.  i followed this recipe, and i’ve gotta say, these little suckers were pretty amazing – and great-looking too.  there are a lot of steps, but it’s totally worth every bit of work.  the only change i made was substituting fleur de sel for the smoked sea salt (because that’s what i already had), and that little bite of salt tempers the super sweet caramel.  make sure you cut them pretty small – they’re very rich – and that way you’ll have more to share.
