Description

These decadent Chocolate Sticks are a timeless treat that combines the deep, robust flavor of bitter chocolate with the crunch of chopped nuts. The batter is incredibly simple, relying on melted butter, sugar, and eggs to create a dense, moist texture that holds its shape perfectly when cut. They are not overly sweet, allowing the quality of the chocolate to shine through. Ideal for holiday gift boxes, cookie platters, or a quick indulgence with a cup of coffee, these bars are easy to prepare and store well. The addition of vanilla and a pinch of salt balances the richness, making every bite a satisfying experience.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly with butter.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the bitter chocolate squares and butter together, stirring constantly until smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat.
  3. Stir the sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until well incorporated.
  4. In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the eggs with the salt.
  5. Gradually stir the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture, ensuring it is fully blended.
  6. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  7. Sift the flour over the mixture and fold it in gently using a spatula until no dry flour remains.
  8. Fold in the chopped nuts evenly throughout the batter.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
  10. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  11. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting out and cutting into slim rectangular sticks.
