Ingredients
 

  • 150 g Cashew nuts
  • 50 g Dried cranberries
  • 250 g Brown sugar
  • 30 g Butter
  • 70 ml Cream
  • Some neutral oil for a board
  • 50 g Dark couverture

Instructions
 

  • Finely chop the cashews and cranberries.
  • In a large pan, slowly melt the sugar. Stir in butter and slowly add the cream, otherwise there will be lumps.
  • Bring to the boil briefly and stir the chopped nuts and fruits evenly into this caramel mixture.
  • Lightly oil a kitchen board and spread the nut mixture on it and smooth it out with a knife. Thickness approx. 0.5 cm. Before the plate has cooled down completely and becomes firm, cut squares or diamonds with a sharp knife.
  • Slowly melt the couverture in the water bath, draw it into a syringe or cut a tiny corner from a freezer bag and pour in the chocolate. Garnish the nut parts with it.
