How to make the most deliciously addictive, melt-in-your-mouth Italian Baci Chocolates at home. Made with a smooth and creamy milk chocolate centre with crunchy chopped hazelnuts and then dipped in dark chocolate.
Share:
Ingredients
- 3.5 oz (100g) milk chocolate
- 7 oz (200g) dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 2 tablespoons (30g) butter unsalted
- 70 g (heaped 1/2 cup) hazelnuts chopped
- 100 g (1/3 cup) hazelnut spread
- 20 hazelnut whole
Instructions
- Melt the milk chocolate and butter in Bain Marie (a bowl sitting on top of a pot of gently simmering water). Once melted turn off the heat and add the chocolate hazelnut spread and the chopped hazelnuts, mix to combine.
- Let the mixture cool then put it in the fridge to stiffen up for at least 1 hour.
- Roll the mixture into small balls (about ½ tablespoon size) and press a whole hazelnut on top of each chocolate. Put them back in the fridge to chill.
- Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate in a Bain Marie. Once melted, remove the bowl from the heat and let the chocolate cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Prepare a baking tray lined with baking parchment and sit a cooling rack on top, set aside.
- One at a time, spoon the dark chocolate over each ball and place them on the cooling rack. Leave the chocolates at room temperature to set then serve.
Notes
- Rolling into balls - if your mixture is too soft to roll into balls put it back in the fridge to chill for longer or place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. It might also help to use damp hands (we've done this a few times).
- Gifting - wrap the chocolates in foil wrappers for a special gift idea.
- Storage - store in a container at room temperature for up to 5 days or store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks
