Ingredients

  1. granola (Healthy Hubbage with almond butter) - 350 g
  2. couverture, chopped - 100 g (for the mixture)
  3. honey - 100 g
  4. water - 150 g
  5. cocoa - 2 tablespoons
  6. cinnamon - 2 teaspoons
  7. cognac - 2 tablespoons (Hermi or similar)
  8. walnuts - 100 g
  9. couverture, melted - 300 g (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Prepare syrup: In a saucepan, combine water and honey. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat.
  2. Melt chocolate: Add chopped couverture and cocoa to the hot syrup. Wait a few seconds before stirring to allow the chocolate to soften, then mix until smooth.
  3. Prepare granola: Divide the granola, blending half into a powder. Combine both the powdered and whole granola in a large bowl.
  4. Combine ingredients: Add cinnamon, cognac, and hand-broken walnuts to the granola. Pour in the chocolate mixture and mix well.
  5. Form the trunk: Spread the mixture onto parchment paper. Shape into a roll, wrap with cling film, and freeze until set.
  6. Coat with chocolate: Cut the frozen roll into slices. Dip each slice in melted couverture, remove excess chocolate, and allow to set on cling film.
  7. Serve: Once the chocolate coating has set, transfer the cariocas to a serving tray.
