Salted Caramel Tim Tam Truffles (Video)

Remember these gorgeously easy, sweet and indulgent Tim Tam Truffles? Well I’ve just created something even sweeter and even more indulgent!

Welcome one and all to my indulgent, fit-for-Hollywood blog! Although this recipe is super easy, super quick to make and super not “health” food, I think it fits in my over-the-top, indulgent, showstopping, dessert category. I mean, we take salted caramel Tim Tams, condensed milk, salted caramel sauce and melted chocolate and just turn those ingredients into, well, these!

Tim Tams are a staple in New Zealand and I believe Australia. I’m not sure about the rest of the world but if you can get your hands on these, then seriously do! Your life will be changed forever. These biscuits were a treat for me as a child as they are a more expensive packet biscuit to buy so only for special occasions or the odd treat could we actually afford them. Until I made my Tim Tam Truffles I actually hadn’t eaten one of these biscuits in probably nearly 10 years. After I started baking  most weeks, bought biscuits kind of went out the window. Until now…..

I found salted caramel Tim Tams but if you can’t find those, regular caramel Tim Tams will do. To fill these, I made my simple salted caramel sauce that has been used here, here and here.

I’m not going to explain how to make these. Check out the video for that!

Recipe Notes

Make these as large or as small as you like.
I made mine quite large as it is easier to fill with the caramel sauce.
