Today, we present to you the Italian cousin of the praline: and yes, dear hazelnut lovers, you will still be served with this marvel. Super easy to make and perfect to accompany your coffee/tea break, we'll let you discover our detailed Gianduja recipe and above all enjoy :-)
Place the hazelnuts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake in an oven preheated to 390°F (200°C) for 10 minutes.
Take out the hazelnuts and let them cool before removing the skin by rolling them under your hands. You can also put them in a colander and shake the colander until most of the skin is gone.
Melt the chocolate. Chop the hazelnuts in a chopper. Add the icing sugar and mix until you obtain a liquid paste. Add the chocolate and mix again.
When your mixture is homogeneous, transfer everything into an ice cube mold or onto a baking sheet to then cut them out. Place everything in the fridge for at least 30 minutes so that the dough hardens.
Unmold and enjoy with a good coffee! ;-)
