Brittle fits a lot, no matter crushed over sundaes or as a decoration for food or long drinks.

Here I introduce you how to make my hazelnut crisp. The list of ingredients is also very manageable and the production is not difficult.

ingredients

hazelnut

  • 100 g of sugar
  • Chopped 60 g of hazelnuts

preparation

  1. Caramelise the sugar in a correspondingly large pot, but do not stir it (only when the sugar is liquid) and the hazelnuts come to it, stir the mass until all nuts are covered with sugar.
  2. Immediately emptying the liquid mass on baking paper put another baking paper over it and flat-rolling the mass with the rolling pin ... and? Careful? be, with everything that is heated with sugar, that's hellish hot !!!
  3. Peel off the top baking paper, allow the mixture to harden slightly, then turn everything over and pull the baking paper off the ground.
  4. Allow the mass to cool and cut the brittle into small pieces with a knife, the blade of which is gently rubbed with neutral oil, with kitchen papercloth (which prevents the brittle from sticking to the blade).

What is not used can be stored in a jar with a lid and lasts about 3 months ... just as long as it has never stopped.
