Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 pralines
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prepare for setting the pralines.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine coconut oil and sugar-free chocolate chips. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Add almond butter, salt, and vanilla extract to the melted chocolate mixture. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully incorporated and create a uniform, glossy texture.
- Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop equal-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, creating round praline shapes.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the pralines have fully set and become firm.
- Remove from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
- Store remaining pralines in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Tips
- • Use room temperature ingredients for smoother mixing and better texture • Ensure your coconut oil and chocolate are melted slowly to prevent burning • For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of sea salt on top before chilling • Use a silicone mat for easier removal and cleanup • Make sure to stir the mixture thoroughly to create a uniform, glossy consistency • Don't rush the chilling process – patience ensures the perfect praline texture • For variation, try different sugar-free chocolate chips or add a sprinkle of chopped nuts on top • These pralines are best enjoyed slightly chilled for maximum flavor and texture
