Few things tantalize me like chocolate and nuts, combined. Peanuts, almonds, cashews, hazelnuts--you name it! It's a forever combination made in heaven for me.
But there's something especially scrumptious about chocolate and hazelnuts. So when I recently came across a video touting the two in a delicious bark, I knew I had to bring the goodness to life in my own kitchen.
Following church today, I made good on that promise and a three-ingredient star was born (I added sea salt to finish, in case you're wondering). It takes sheers minutes to bring together, followed by an hour or so to set in the freezer--and you've got the best noshing at your fingertips.
Whether it's a casual (healthy-ish) sweet fix or a dessert course, it eats (and satiates) all the same.
Here's to your own batch in your kitchen and guaranteed...Happy Eating!
Chocolate Hazelnut Bark
Ingredients:
6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate
8 oz. hazelnuts
Sea salt to finish (optional)
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place hazelnuts in preheated oven and roast for 10-12 min.
Remove roasted hazelnuts and place them in a clean kitchen towel. Using towel, rub skins off of the hazelnuts (don't worry if they don't all come off) and set hazelnuts aside.
Melt chocolate in a double boiler (place a heat-proof bowl over a pot of simmering water, being careful not to allow the bottom of the bowl to touch the water) and stir chocolate until completely melted. Remove chocolate from heat and stir in hazelnuts.
Pour chocolate-hazelnut mixture onto a parchment lined baking tray. Sprinkle with sea salt, if using.
Place tray in freezer and allow bark to set, 1-2 hours.
Remove from freezer and enjoy!
