What Ingredients are in a Salted Caramel Pie?
No oven is needed in making this salted caramel pie! It is that simple! You only need a few ingredients to make this sweet dessert. You will love have simple this pie is and how quickly it comes together!
A pre-made Oreo pie crust – You could try to make your own, but buying one from the grocery store is so much easier! 75 wrapped caramels – To be honest, unwrapping these may be the hardest part of making the entire pie. This is a good job for tiny, nimble hands! Have your kids wash up and task them with this part. Heavy cream – This will thicken the pie and create a creamy, rich salted caramel sauce. Sea salt – The combination of chocolate, caramel, and sea salt is absolutely amazing! I used a coarse sea salt to add texture on top. Semi-sweet chocolate chips – Melt chocolate chips in a large bowl in the microwave. Stir together until creamy.
Homemade Oreo Crust
Still keep this recipe simple without using too many ingredients! Only Oreo cookies and melted butter. This Oreo crust will taste even better than the store bought and easy to make.
How to Make Caramel
If you don’t have wrapped caramels on-hand. Simply boil condensed milk until is caramelizes. It will turn a light brown color. Once it caramelizes, pour into a pan and let the caramel setup or add it directly to the pie. The consistency of the caramel should still be thicker than a dulce de leche.
Tips, Add-ins, and Substitutions for Salted Caramel Pie
Whisk in vanilla extract to the caramel. Add a little more flavor to the pie! Substitute the crust for a graham cracker crumbs and enjoy a little different flavor. Using a saucepan on medium-high heat, slowly stir the caramel until smooth and creamy. You can do this with the chocolate too. Add some seasonal spices to the melted caramel, like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, a pinch of salt, or pumpkin pie spice.
