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
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2
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.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark vegan chocolate gently over a pot of simmering water, stirring frequently to ensure smoothness.
Step 5
Once melted, remove the chocolate from the heat and stir in the coconut cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well combined.
Step 6
Fold the chopped hazelnuts into the chocolate mixture.
Step 7
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.
Step 8
Chill the pralines in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until firm.
Step 9
Once set, dust the pralines with cocoa powder using a fine sieve before serving.
Step 10
Store the pralines in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
