bluekarin Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I made some of these today and oh my word they are lovely! Thought I'd share the recipe with you, just in case you don't believe me and need to make sure Sweet and Salty Crunch Nut Bars 200g milk chocolate 100g dark chocolate 125g unsalted butter 1 x 15ml tbsp golden syrup 250g salted peanuts 2 x 80g Crunchie bars* 26cm springform tin lined, you can use a rectangle tin or square tin with dimensions similar and indeed Nigella suggests disposable foil tins as an option too. Get the butter and the golden syrup melting on a low heat in a heavy based pan and break up the chocolates and add that to the golden sludge. Put the peanuts into medium mixing bowl and break and crumble in the Crunchie bars. When the chocolate mixture has just melted, pour it over the nuts and honeycomb and stir together. Pour into prepared tin, and spread out and flatten as much as you can, using a silicon spatula. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours before cutting into chunks or wedges - depending on your tin of choice. Makes about 20 pieces - I cut mine into about 36 little squares, you will end up with some crumbs, but that's my idea of 'cooks treat'. The lady who posted this recipe is going to try this next time she makes it. *Violet Crumble, which is a chocolate coated honeycomb would make a lovely ingredient here. It's not as light as Crunchie bars though, so you'd need to use a mortar and pestle or mallet to break it into shards. It would be magic flavour and texture wise though, so will be doing that next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
