Step 3: Melt the Topping
Put the baking sheet in the oven for about 3–5 minutes. The candy should be soft but not completely melted. Watch closely to avoid over-melting.
Step 4: Add the Finishing Touch
Remove the tray from the oven. Immediately press a nut, candy, or sprinkle onto the softened chocolate or caramel, gently flattening it.
Step 5: Cool and Set
Let the bites cool completely. You can speed up the process by placing the tray in the refrigerator for about 15–20 minutes.
Serving and Storing
Serve these little delights on a festive platter, and watch them disappear in seconds! Store leftovers (if there are any!) in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
