Ritzy Chocolate-covered Nuts Recipe
Yield: 1 BatchRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
CANDY
2 cup: Almond slivers,
1 cup: Sugar,
1/3 cup: Water, or less
TOPPING
12 ounce: Chocolate, can use chips, but if they have a gray bloom, they might not melt
Directions:
In a heavy sauce pan, boil almond slivers, sugar and water over low to
medium heat until all the water is gone and the sugar crystallizes on
the peanuts.
Pour almond slivers out onto a well-greased baking sheet. Separate
clumps with a greased fork. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F. oven
about 15 minutes. Be careful not to burn.
Melt chocolate over low heat with constant stirring. When candied
almonds have cooled, dip into melted chocolate. Place on foil to set.
Her notes:
* These nuts -- which are "quick and easy" for holiday entertaining
~- were inspired by a presentation Shirley attended at a cooking
schools convention at the Ritz Carlton. They are basically the same
recipe Paula Murphy uses for candied peanuts; she uses raw, Spanish
peanuts instead of almonds, and she doesnt coat them with chocolate.
