INGREDIENTS
9 ounces 85% dark chocolate
1 cup hazelnuts,
skins removed & chopped **
¼ cup orange zest, finely sliced
¼ teaspoon sea salt

Line a small rimmed baking sheet with parchment, refrigerate.

Break apart chocolate into small pieces.

Set a double boiler over medium heat. *

Add chocolate pieces and stir occasionally until melted.

Remove from heat and add ½ cup hazelnuts & ⅛ cup orange zest, stirring until combined.

Pour chocolate mixture onto prepared sheet.

Sprinkle remaining hazelnuts, orange zest & sea salt over surface.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes, until set.

Break into quarter-sized pieces.

Store refrigerated in an airtight container.

 

* If you do not have a double boiler, simmer a few inches of water in a medium saucepan, fit a glass bowl inside, ensuring water does not enter the container.

** To remove bitter skins, heat oven to 400 degrees. Lay hazelnuts in a single-layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 10-15 minutes, until skins have darkened, mindful not to burn nuts. Place roasted nuts in a clean kitchen towel & rub until skins flake off. Repeat roast and rub process until all skins are removed.
