Happy Sweet Sunday!

It’s time for another delicious sweet dish. Today’s recipe is for Chocolate Peanut Rocks, which is an incredibly easy recipe, that takes almost no time to make. Perfect for lazy days where you just feel like enjoying something sweet and chocolatey.

I’ve learned this recipe from a friend at primary school. It was actually one of the first things I learned to make. As the recipe is so simple, it is hard to forget about it.

Fun thing about this deliciousness is that you can basically tweak it to your own liking or to whatever you’re in the mood for. You could choose a different type of chocolate, or use hazelnuts instead of peanuts. Like that, you’ll have a completely different chocolate rock!

Ingredients

100 grams (3.5 oz) pure chocolate
25 grams (0.8 oz) butter
50 grams (1.76 oz) peanuts

Used kitchen tools

1 small pan
1 small bowl (that can fit on top of the pan for the au-bain-marie method)
Tin foil

Preparation

Fill the small pan with just enought water, so the bowl can be placed on top without touching the wate (au-bain-marie). Put it on a medium heat. Do not let it boil.
Put the chocolate and butter in the bowl, and let it melt together. Stir once in a while.
Place a sheet of tin foil on your working space. Make small mounts out of the peanuts, so you’ll end up with 15 of those.
With a spoon, carefully pour the chocolate over the peanuts to coat them.

You can store them in an airthight container for about 3 days.
