directions

  • Toast ground hazelnut on medium heat in a pan, constantly stirring.
  • In a bowl, mix warm nuts with alcohol and sugar and knead into a dough.
  • If dough is too firm, add some warm water.
  • Melt the chocolate in a bain marie and temper, if you can.
  • Form walnut-size balls from the nut-dough.
  • Dip in chocolate and set on aluminum foil to firm up.
  • Let cool and firm up for about 2 hours.
  • Do not chill in the fridge as this will cause condensation moisture and also will ruin the tempering (if you did temper).
