Walnut praline in dark chocolate

2 servings

20 minutes

Praline made from walnuts in dark chocolate is a refined dessert of Greek cuisine that combines the tenderness of nuts, the sweetness of honey, and the richness of dark chocolate. Walnuts, symbols of longevity and wisdom, give this treat a soft nutty texture while honey adds natural sweetness. Coated in velvety chocolate glaze, these pralines offer a rich flavor with a hint of bitterness, creating a perfect balance between sweet and bitter. In Greece, such desserts are often served with coffee or strong tea to enjoy moments of taste bliss. They are convenient for festive tables or as an elegant treat for guests. Storing them in the refrigerator makes the texture denser, allowing one to savor each bite slowly and with pleasure.
