Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams sliced almonds
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter and erythritol over medium heat.
Stir constantly until the mixture melds and begins to bubble, ensuring it doesn't burn.
Once the mixture reaches a golden brown color (about 6-8 minutes), remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Immediately pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly with a spatula to your desired thickness.
Sprinkle the sugar-free dark chocolate chips evenly over the hot mixture.
Allow the chocolate to sit for about 2 minutes to melt; then, using a spatula, spread the chocolate smoothly over the hardened mixture.
Scatter the sliced almonds evenly over the chocolate while it's still warm.
Gently press the almonds into the chocolate with a spatula to ensure they adhere.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes or until the chocolate has set and the brittle has hardened.
Once set, break the brittle into pieces of your desired size with a sharp knife or by hand.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
