  • 1 handful of almond flakes

Instructions

quick to make, nice addition to desserts

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius (top/bottom heat). Toast the almond flakes in a dry pan and let cool. Place the candies well apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prepare a second sheet of parchment paper and a rolling pin. Place the sheet in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Watch the candies melt; they should not turn brown. Immediately remove the sheet and pull the caramel and the parchment paper onto a large wooden board. Place the second sheet of parchment paper on top and roll everything out well with a rolling pin. Peel back the top sheet of parchment paper and distribute the almond flakes evenly among the caramel circles by hand, then return the parchment paper to the sheet. Return to the oven for another 7-8 minutes. The caramel will melt again, and the almond flakes will adhere. Remove immediately and let cool briefly. The caramel makes a lovely addition to desserts. Separate with parchment paper for storage. Can be prepared several days in advance.
