Praline Hazelnut Domes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 80g sugar.
02 - 1 tablespoon of water.
03 - 125g whole hazelnuts.
04 - 40g crispy wafers.
05 - 110g milk chocolate.
06 - 190g hazelnut praline.
07 - 150ml heavy cream (30% fat).
08 - 1 sheet of gelatin.
09 - 30g hazelnut spread.
10 - 120g hazelnuts for topping.

# Instructions:

01 - Combine sugar and water to make caramel, toss in the hazelnuts. Let it set, then blend for 5 minutes until you get a smooth paste.
02 - Crush the wafers, mix with molten chocolate and praline. Shape into 6 circles, then chill in the fridge.
03 - Coat half-sphere molds with two layers of chocolate. Chill in the fridge after each layer.
04 - Mix chopped hazelnuts with the hazelnut spread. Keep it aside.
05 - Soak gelatin in water. Warm a bit of cream, melt the gelatin into it. Blend this with the praline, then fold it into whipped cream.
06 - Fill the chocolate shells with mousse, place the hazelnut core in the center, and cover it with more mousse. Add the crispy base to finish.
07 - After chilling for 3 hours, pop them out of the molds and dress them up with toasted, chopped hazelnuts.

# Notes:

01 - This treat takes its inspiration from the famous Ferrero Rocher but delivers a fancier dome-shaped twist.
02 - Making your own praline gives a richer flavor compared to store-bought alternatives.
