Chocolate Praline

Chocolate Pralines combine the crumbly, nutty taste of classic pralines with rich semi-sweet chocolate.

My Chocolate Praline basic recipe is my best friends’, thank you Ola and Marcin for your inspiration. J

Ingredients:

500g unsalted butter

300g golden caster sugar

250ml cold water

3 tbsp cocoa powder

250g dried milk

50g butter biscuits

50g nuts

chocolate cover

100g dark chocolate 90% cocoa

200g milk chocolate 65% cocoa

Preparation:

1. Melt unsalted butter with caster sugar  in a bowl, set over a pan of gently simmering water, then leave to cool slightly.

2. Add the cocoa powder to the mixture and using a wooden spoon, or electric whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and well combined. (The chocolate mixture will now be very liquid.)

3. Add the dried milk  to the mixture and beat the mixture until smooth. (The chocolate mixture will now be very solid).

4. Add the nuts and biscuits to the mixture and using a wooden spoon beat the mixture until well combined.

Place the mixture into a form and leave in fridge overnight.

5. For the chocolate cover, place all the chocolate into a small saucepan and heat very gently, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
