- Granulated sugar = 1 cup
- Roasted hazelnuts = 1/2 cup
- Unsalted butter = 1 tablespoon
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula
As the sugar melts, continue stirring until it turns golden brown and reaches a caramel consistency
Quickly stir in roasted hazelnuts and unsalted butter until well combined
Immediately pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into a thin layer using the back of the spoon or spatula
Allow the Krokan to cool completely at room temperature until hard and brittle
Once cooled, break into small pieces or shards
Store in an airtight container at room temperature until ready to serve
- Use a heavy-bottomed pan for even heat distribution.
- Stir the sugar gently and watch closely as it turns golden.
- Don’t walk away—caramel can burn very quickly.
- Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
- Use freshly roasted almonds for the best taste.
- Pour onto parchment paper for easy removal.
- Let it cool completely before breaking into pieces.
