Step-by-step Guide
Preparation
- Half an hour before baking, preheat the oven to 180 ºC so it's at the right temperature.
- Crush the hazelnuts with a pestle until they are in small pieces.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, being careful not to burn it, stirring occasionally.
- Once the butter has completely melted, add the cream and mix well until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
- Next, incorporate the crushed hazelnuts and sugar into the mixture. Stir well so all the ingredients are well integrated.
- Once the mixture is well stirred and homogeneous, spread it evenly over a sheet of parchment paper placed on a baking tray.
- Bake at 180 ºC for 12 minutes or until the mixture acquires a golden hue.
- Once the preparation is cool, break it into irregular pieces to facilitate serving.
