Recipe for Crunchy Chocolate-Coated Nutty Treats:
Ingredients:
- For the Crunchy Base:
- 1 cup crushed digestive biscuits or any crunchy cookies
- 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- For the Chocolate Coating:
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips or chopped milk chocolate
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup crushed nuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Base:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed biscuits, chopped nuts, melted butter, and honey. Mix well until the ingredients are well combined and form a sticky mixture.
- Shape the Base:
- Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into oval or round discs, about 1-2 inches in size. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 15-20 minutes to set.
- Melt the Chocolate:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips, and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Coat the Treats:
- Dip each refrigerated base into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork to lift each treat out of the chocolate, letting any excess drip off. Place them back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Add Toppings (Optional):
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle some crushed nuts on top of each coated treat for extra crunch and flavor.
- Set the Chocolate:
- Allow the treats to set at room temperature or refrigerate them for a faster setting.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once the chocolate is firm, your crunchy chocolate-coated nutty treats are ready to serve. Enjoy them as a sweet snack or dessert!
