„Tartuffo di Almondo“ nougats with the wonderful taste of expresso and caramelised hazelnuts, dusted with the finest cocoa! A great treat to enjoy on your own or to give away! Just 1 g net carbs per piece!

Caramelised hazelnuts

  • 50 g water
  • 50 g Dr. Almond Caramel Dream
  • 150 g Dr. Almond Hazelnuts Premium Selection Roasted & Blanched

Nougat-Espresso mass

  • 200 g Dr. Almond Chocolate Magic DARK CHOCOLATE
  • 100 g Dr. Almond Hazelnut Butter PREMIUM Quality
  • 1-2 pcs JACOBS Espresso Instant Coffee Sticks (or similar product)
  • 5 g Dr. Almond Low Carb Sweetener (optional)

You may also need

  • 1 pc Silikomart SF026 bar silicone mould 12×70 ml (or similar moulds)
  • Dr. Almond PREMIUM Cocoa powder (for dusting)

For the caramelised hazelnuts

  1. Preheat oven to 160° C
  2. Briefly boil up caramel dream and water in a small saucepan. Coasely chop nuts and add into the liquid mix. Let boil for approx. 1 minute. Water evaporates violently.
  3. Spread the mass on a baking tray covered with baking paper and bake for approx. 10 – 12 minutes.
  4. Allow the mass to cool down and chop up slightly. Nuts should be left in rough pieces! Don’t chop up too finely!

For the nougat mass

  1. Melt chocolate magic and espresso instant coffee in a pot. Add hazelnut butter. You could add some low-carb sweetener (powder) if you like – depending on how intense the taste of the added espresso powder really is. Just season as you like it! Fold in the hazelnut crunch.
  2. Now distribute the mass into the silicone mould – I made 9 bars. Or you fill the mass into a bigger mould lined with cling film (size approx. 12 x 16 cm).
  3. Store in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  4. Now cut the mass into cubes and dust with cocoa powder!
  5. The cubes can best be kept in the fridge! They simply taste delicious!
