Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed nuts
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, brown sugar, and butter. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to bubble, then remove from heat.
Stir in vanilla extract and salt into the honey mixture.
Place the mixed nuts into a large bowl. Pour the honey mixture over the nuts, stirring to coat evenly.
Spoon the nut mixture into small clusters onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cluster.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Remember to keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove from oven and let the clusters cool on the baking sheet.
Once cooled, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the nut clusters and allow the chocolate to set.
Once the chocolate is firm, the clusters are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
