Milk Duds

Serious Mealtimes / Vicky Wasik

As far as I’m concerned there’s only one candy at the box office: Milk Duds. From their humble name to their unassuming appearance (best described as a brown blob) Milk Duds are a study in simplicity. No geometric shape no logo no colorful candy shell no nuts no gooey mascot. Just chewy caramel and chocolate; the end. A simple story perhaps but one that reminds us that it’s what’s inside that counts.

There are plenty of recipes in this world for chocolate covered caramels but a Milk Dud is unique. The caramel core is chewy and mild without any bitterness. To make this caramel I keep it simple with sugar salt and cream. The technique itself is exactly the same as for my easy caramel sauce but with the proportions and temperatures adjusted to create a chewy candy instead.
