Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark vegan chocolate
- 100 milliliters Coconut cream
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Hazelnuts
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 8-10 minutes until golden and fragrant. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
Place the cooled hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and rub them together to remove the skins. Roughly chop the peeled hazelnuts and set aside.
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark vegan chocolate gently over a pot of simmering water, stirring frequently to ensure smoothness.
Once melted, remove the chocolate from the heat and stir in the coconut cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well combined.
Fold the chopped hazelnuts into the chocolate mixture.
Using a small spoon or a mini ice cream scoop, portion out the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming small mound-shaped pralines.
Chill the pralines in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until firm.
Once set, dust the pralines with cocoa powder using a fine sieve before serving.
Store the pralines in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
