Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa, paleo-compliant)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 100 grams pecans, roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped pecans, honey, and sea salt. Stir constantly until the pecans are nicely coated and the mixture is bubbling, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the praline mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Spread the mixture thinly onto the prepared baking sheet, using a spatula. Allow it to cool until it hardens.
Step 4
While the praline is cooling, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a double boiler, stirring occasionally until smooth. Make sure the mixture doesn't boil.
Step 5
Break the cooled praline into bite-sized pieces and stir them into the melted chocolate, making sure they are evenly coated.
Step 6
Spoon the chocolate praline mixture into small clusters onto the parchment paper. Let them set at room temperature or in the refrigerator until firm, approximately 30 minutes to an hour depending on room temperature.
Step 7
Once firm, serve the Chocolate Pralines and enjoy them as a paleo-friendly dessert or treat.
