Irresistible Nut Brittle Dessert Filling Recipe

Start by thoroughly washing the nuts. You can use any nuts, but in this recipe, we’ll use *walnuts*. Roast them in the oven at 180°C (356°F) on a top-bottom heat setting without convection for around 7 minutes.

Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning.

Once roasted, chop the nuts into pieces and sift them to remove any tiny crumbs.

In a saucepan or skillet, combine the sugar, glucose syrup, and water. Cook the mixture until it reaches a *caramel color*.

The glucose syrup helps the sugar dissolve faster and prevents burning. If you don’t have glucose syrup, you can skip it.

Add the *unsalted butter* to the caramel syrup without stopping the cooking process.

Stir the roasted nuts into the caramel so that each piece is well-coated.

Spread the caramel-coated nuts onto a silicone mat or parchment paper in a single layer. Let them cool completely.

Break the cooled brittle into pieces. You can now use these crunchy, aromatic nuts as a filling for your desserts.

Store the brittle in an airtight container at room temperature. It can last up to 30 days.

For a delicious treat, try incorporating the brittle into marshmallow mushrooms. The combination of *soft marshmallow* and *caramelized nuts* is heavenly. Note that the nuts might lose some crunch due to moisture, but the flavor pairing is still exquisite.

Tip: Ensure the nuts are fully embedded in the marshmallow to prevent melted caramel from leaking.

Enjoy your delicious creation!
