Step 4: Combine Nuts and Praline
- Add the toasted nuts to the warm praline mixture.
- Stir until each piece is thoroughly coated in the caramel-like mixture.
Step 5: Spread on Baking Sheet
- Pour the praline-nut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Use a spatula to spread it evenly into a thin layer, about 1/4-inch thick.
Tip: The thinner you spread it, the crunchier the final product will be.
Step 6: Cool Completely
Let the praline crunch cool at room temperature for at least 1–2 hours, or until fully hardened. You can also place it in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
Step 7: Break into Pieces
Once cooled and hardened, gently break the praline crunch into irregular pieces. You want a rustic, homemade look rather than uniform squares.
Step 8: Optional Chocolate Drizzle
For an extra decadent touch, melt chocolate chips and drizzle over the praline crunch using a fork or piping bag. Let the chocolate set for 10–15 minutes before serving.
Serving & Storage Tips
- Serve as a sweet snack, dessert topping, or gift for friends and family.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
- For extra crunch, avoid storing in humid areas as sugar can soften over time.
