Best 8 Gilded Honeycomb Hazelnut Brittle Recipes

HAZELNUT BRITTLE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, mix the sugar with the water until it looks like wet sand. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring gently to dissolve the sugar. Simmer without disturbing for 20 minutes, or until the mixture turns a light amber color.
• Spray a small rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Spread the chopped hazelnuts out on the baking sheet. Pour the caramel over the hazelnuts and let sit for 10 minutes, or until hardened. Break into shards.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, vinegar, and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan set over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Cook until dark amber in color, 20 to 22 minutes. Stir in nuts.
• Oil an 11-by-17-inch baking pan. Pour hot mixture onto pan. Let set until firm but still soft enough to cut. Invert onto a cutting board, and unmold. Working quickly, use an oiled chef's knife to cut the sheet into six rectangles. Store brittle in an airtight container up to 1 week.
