Nutella Caramel Chocolates Recipes

WARM NUTELLA PUDDINGS WITH CHOCOLATE CARAMEL

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. For the sauce, pour the cream into a small pan over a low heat and warm slightly. Put the honey in a separate heavy-based saucepan and heat for 2-3 minutes over a medium heat until slightly caramelised. Remove from the heat and whisk in the warm cream. Return to the heat, add the chocolate and stir gently for a further minute until the chocolate has melted. Add the butter a little at a time, whisking. Keep warm.
• Put the egg whites and a pinch of salt in a clean, dry bowl and whisk using an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form (they won't fall over when you remove the beaters).
• Put the egg yolks and Nutella in another clean bowl and whisk with an electric hand mixer until smooth. Using a large metal spoon, add one third of the egg white and fold in to lighten. Carefully fold in the rest.
• Fill the ramekins to the top with the mixture. Put on a baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes. The puddings will deflate slightly once they come out of the oven so serve immediately, drizzled with the warm chocolate caramel and topped with a dollop of whipped cream.

NUTELLA CHOCOLATE CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the Sugar, Water and Corn Syrup (or Glucose) in a large pot over medium-high heat. Brush the sides of the pot with a wet pastry brush to remove any stray Sugar granules.
• Chef's Note: Once the pot is on the heat, do not stir. Stirring can cause the Sugar mixture to recrystallize. Make sure your pot can hold at least three times the volume of your ingredients. Later, when you add the Cream, the mixture will bubble dramatically. If the pot is too small, the Caramel will spill everywhere.
• Make a slurry (i.e. a paste) with the Cream and Cocoa Powder, slowly adding the Cream to the Cocoa Powder while stirring gently.
• Slowly adding the Cream to the Cocoa Powder while stirring helps to create a smoother mixture without leaving dry lumps of Cocoa Powder.
• Continue heating the Sugar until the mixture begins to turn a golden amber. At this point, it is okay to stir gently to redistribute the heat if necessary. Continue heating the Caramel until it turns a deep amber or to approximately 360 - 370 degrees Fahrenheit (182 - 188 degrees Celsius).
• Chef's Note: As the Caramel continues to cook, the rate at which the temperature rises will increase. Keep an eye on your heat and be ready to remove the pot from the stove as you approach your desired color. Remember that the Caramel will continue to cook even after the pot is removed from the heat.
• When the Caramel has reached temperature, remove the pot from the heat and slowly pour in the Cream and Cocoa Powder mixture while whisking actively. Do not pour too much of the mixture in at one time. The mixture will steam and bubble dramatically, and the pot could overflow.
• Once all of the Cream and Cocoa Powder mixture has been incorporated, add the Salt and Butter, and stir until combined. When the Butter is fully incorporated, add the Nutella and stir until combined.
• Set the Nutella Chocolate Caramel Sauce aside to cool and thicken, stirring occasionally.
• Store the Nutella Chocolate Caramel Sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a month or in the freezer for several months. The cold Nutella Chocolate Caramel Sauce is very thick. To return it to a pouring consistency, gently heat it over a double boiler.

CARAMEL STUFFED NUTELLA COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and both sugars together on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and mix on high until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla and Nutella and beat on high until completely combined.
• Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and beat on low speed until combined. Beat in the hazelnuts. Dough will be thick, yet airy and sticky. Cover and chill the dough for at least 3 hours in the refrigerator. If chilling for longer (up to 3 days), allow dough to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before scooping and baking.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
• Cookie dough will be firm after chilling, but will come together with the warmth of your hands. Measure 1 scant Tablespoon of cookie dough and roll into a ball. Indent your thumb into it. Place caramel candy inside. (See recipe note.) Take another 1 scant Tablespoon of cookie dough and use it to completely cover the caramel candy on top. Roll the caramel-stuffed dough into an even ball. Make sure the caramel is completely wrapped inside. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Repeat with remaining cookie dough and caramels. Arrange cookie dough balls 3 inches apart on baking sheets. Place any remaining cookie dough balls in the refrigerator as you bake the other batches. (Best to keep those dough balls cold.)
• Bake the cookies for 13-14 minutes until the edges appear set. Caramel may have oozed out a little. (That's ok!) The centers will look very soft and under-baked. Remove from the oven and let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. The cookies will continue to "set" on the baking sheet during this time. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Use a thin spatula to help transfer the cookies to the cooling rack, especially if some caramel oozed out.
• Cover and store leftover cookies at room temperature for up to 1 week.

NUTELLA HOT CHOCOLATE
