# Chocolate Rocks

# Ingredients

## For the inside

- 180 g of pralin
- 60 g of chocolat (dark preferably)

## For the outside

- 150 g of dark chocolate (65%)
- 75 g of crunchy stuff (nuts, corn flakes)


# How to

a. First the inside:
    1. Melt and mix the chocolate to the pralin
    2. Let it cool down to obtain a solid mixture (10-15°C is okay, but the fridge also)
    3. Form small balls of approximately 1 cm diameter
    4. Let it cool again if you used your hands to form the balls
b. Next, the outside:
    1. Mix if necessary the "crunchy stuff". Avoid mixing too hard, otherwise you will loose the crunch.
    2. Melt the chocolate and add the crunch
    3. NB: you do not need to temperate the chocolate
    4. Roll each ball in the mixture, and put it on a cooking cheat.
    5. Do one ball at a time, otherwise you may loose / destroy some in the chocolate
    6. Let it cool for an hour, or until the chocolate cristllized


# Variants

## Possibilities for Crunchy Material

- Roasted nuts (walnuts, almond, hazelnut)
- Cereals (cornflakes)
- Roasted buckwheat seeds
- None
- None and add dark chocolate powder

## Bounty

There is no "pralin" for coconut.
Instead, mix the (dry) coconut to get almost a cream.
Then, melt white chocolate.

For the proportion, 120g of coconut for 120g of white chocolate is a better mix.
(pralin is 50% nuts, 50% sugar, so this mix allows to add the sweetness without the sensation of raw sugar)

Here, you don't want balls.
Instead, put the mixture of white chocolate + coconut on a cooking sheet.
Block the mixture to get a thick layer.
When it is solid,  cut it with a nife to get the desired size.

Then, do not add crunchy stuff for the outside.
Temperate the chocolate to get a nicely cristallized chocolate.
Then, when the chocolate is still uncristallized, put a mark with a fork.

The chocolate cream used to form the ball must be solid.
