LOTUS CANDIED ALMONDS TEMPTING DELIGHT

Delicious and crunchy Lotus candied almonds, a very simple sweet to prepare that’s hard to resist. I assure you they are an incredible temptation!

You can enjoy them as a sweet snack or use them in more complex preparations, perhaps as a decoration for cakes, ice creams, and other desserts. You can put them in a food bag to keep in your purse for a tasty nibble when you get hungry, or as a snack for your children at school.

Store them in an airtight glass container to maintain their fragrance and crunchiness.

For this recipe, I used the famous and delicious Lotus Biscoff Cookies included in this month’s Degustabox.

LOTUS CANDIED ALMONDS PREPARATION

Roast the blanched almonds at 340°F for 10 minutes in the oven or air fryer.

  • Melt the white chocolate in a bain-marie and add the teaspoon of Lotus spread or Nutella.

  • Pour all the creamy mixture into the bowl with the cold toasted almonds, mix well so that the chocolate coats all the almonds. Then add the finely chopped cookies.

  • Mix everything well again or you can put the lid on your bowl and shake well so that the cookie crumbs also cover the almonds.

  • Transfer everything onto parchment paper, taking care to space them a little and separate any almonds that are stuck together. Let cool at room temperature or in the fridge. Here are your Lotus-flavored candied almonds ready.
