Whats
not to like about Chocolate and nuts ? Well if the two come together in a quick
to make and No-bake Chocolate nuggets, they disappear like magic.. even my Lil
angel was licking her fingers and asked for seconds, just like her elder sis
:-))
Fuss
Free. Chocolate. Nuts – Its that simple. Do try it out as this makes its way to BM # 46

Prep
time : 15 mins | Cook time : 15 mins
Freeze
time : min 1 hour
Makes
: approx 250 gms of Choco Nut bars (about 20 medium pieces)
Ingredients:
- Marie
biscuits – or any sugarfree or low sugar biscuits – 10 Nos (cookies is not
suitable) - Cooking
Chocolate – I used Morde – 100 gms - Walnuts
– 50 gms - Almonds
– 100 gms - Pistachio
and Cashew – 50 gms (total) - Butter
– 50 gms - Milk
– 1/3 cup (I used less than this) - Powdered
Sugar – 1/3 cup - Vanilla
Essence – 1/2 TBSP
Method:
- Dry
Roast all the nuts individually for 3-4 mins each. Cool and powder separately.
I let it be a lil chunky so they have a bite. Powder the biscuits too
separately (I put them in a ziploc and used the rolling pin to crush them) - Grate
Chocolate finely. (I made pieces of the frozen chocolate and blitzed it in the
spice grinder in spurts till I got a fine powder). - On
a double boiler, melt the chocolate , milk and butter together for 4-5 mins
till you get a glossy ganache kind of mixture. Tip in the sugar and vanilla
essence and take it off the flame. - Now,
add the ground nuts one by one and mix slowly till you get a thickish mass.
Spread on a greased and lined plate. - Set
aside till room temperature. Mark the pieces out with a greased knife. - Set
in the refirigerator for 45 mins – 1 hour (this wait is killing, but totally
worth it – dont rush this stage). - Once
the pieces begin to peel away, cut out pieces and serve immediately. - Keeps
under refrigeration for upto 1 week – 10 days.
