Common Questions
- → What's the point of lining the pan?
Your treat won't stick and pops right out. Foil or parchment makes it super easy.
- → When's my caramel ready to go?
After three minutes on the heat, it should look golden-brown—pull it off quick or it'll scorch.
- → Could I swap in milk chocolate?
Sure—but white chocolate actually matches better with that sweet cinnamon kick.
- → What's the best way to keep these?
Pop 'em in a sealed container on the counter for a week, or chill and they're good for two.
- → Why isn't my chocolate softening up?
Just toss the pan back in the oven for a minute—heat makes chocolate melty all over.
