Peanuts, salt, caramel and chocolate: one of the best sweet and salty combinations there is.
Our bars have salted peanuts in soft caramel, a light base of sponge fingers and a wafer-thin shell of Milk couverture. Homemade, they simply taste much better.

Step by step
If you're in a hurry: the compact recipe card further down sums up everything.
Caramel
1
Melt the sugar
Cover the bottom of a large pan with about a fifth of the sugar and let it melt. Warm the cream in a second pan.
2
Caramelise
Add the remaining sugar in small portions and stir with the flat Whisk until the caramel is golden brown and viscous. If it gets too dark, it tastes bitter, so it's better to start again.

3
Butter and cream
Stir in the soft butter, then the warm cream in two to three portions, carefully, as it steams strongly. Add the salt, pour into a Bowl and chill for at least 1 hour.
Airbrush technique
1
Speckling
Warm the cocoa butter colors in a water bath. Place the Chocolate bar mold on baking paper, put white color on a spoon and draw a silicone brush over the edge, so that fine dots are speckled into the mold. Let it dry for 10 minutes.
2
Spraying
Use the Airbrush to spray one end of the mold with the first color and the other end with the second color. You can leave the middle free. Wipe the mold and let it dry for 10 to 15 minutes.

Pouring and filling the bars
1
Cookie base
Crush the sponge fingers into fine crumbs and mix half of them with the melted butter. Let cool.
2
Pouring
Fill the mould with tempered Milk couverture, tap it, pour the couverture back out and put the mould in the fridge for 10 minutes.

Peanuts and caramel
Spread the peanuts over the mould, whole or chopped, but not too many. Pipe the creamy caramel from the piping bag over them and tap the mould gently.


4
Crunch base and sealing
Spread the cold sponge crumbs over it and press them down. Mix the remaining crumbs with Milk couverture, pour it over the mould and smooth it out. Chill for 15 to 20 minutes and turn the mould out.

So gelingt es garantiert
Cold crumbs
The sponge crumbs must be really cold, otherwise the thin chocolate shell will melt.
Not too full
Only add a little peanut to the mould, as the caramel and base also need room.
Better to chill longer
A few extra minutes in the fridge and the bars will drop out of the mould by themselves.
