Chocolatey and caramelly with a crunchy note

This dessert consists of two airy mascarpone cream layers. The bottom layer has a slight hint of caramel. The top layer is chocolatey.

Hazelnut and chocolate pieces provide a flavorful change to the delicate cream. They provide a crunchy surprise. The filled Easter pasha with caramel flavor and nuts is similar.

The thin layer of caramelized sweetened condensed milk provides even more caramel sweetness. Fine whipped cream rounds off the taste.

Alternative ingredients for nut caramel chocolate dessert cups

Caramelized sweetened condensed milk

I use caramelized sweetened condensed milk in the recipe. However, a caramel sauce works just as well. You can make it yourself or buy it.

Nut nougat cream

Use a delicious, high-quality nut nougat cream for the layered dessert. It can also be homemade.

Hazelnuts

You should definitely roast hazelnuts to release their flavor. Alternatively, you can try the chocolate dessert with almonds, for example.

Dark chocolate

You can replace dark chocolate with milk chocolate, as in the chocolate peanut clusters recipe. The important thing is that the chocolate tastes delicious and is of good quality.
