Chocolate Turrón
Turrón, or torrone, is a special nougat dessert that is very popular in Spain and Italy. It’s usually made with honey, sugar and egg white and sometimes almonds or other nuts. This year we decided to make a very special Chocolate Turrón version made with Alprose Chocolate, Salted Corn Nuts and Corn Flakes - trust us everyone will love it!
Turrón is served a lot during the Christmas and New' Year’s time and is usually quite calorie loaded so we decided to make a version that is a bit “lighter” and can be enjoyed by children and adults alike even after big holiday meals. We hope you enjoy our easy made Chocolate Turrón.
