¾ Cup(6 oz)Extra fine granulated sugar180 g
4 oz(4 oz)Semi or bittersweet chocolate120 g

  1. In a saucepan bring the honey to a boil. Add the sugar and stir to combine. Boil without stirring any further to 335°F (168C°). Chop the chocolate in small pieces.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate using a heat resistant or wooden spatula. Immediately roll the mixture between two silpats or on a lightly oiled surface to a thickness of about 2-3 stacked credit cards.
  3. Once cooled, using a roiling pin roll the chocolate caramel to a fine powder (Do not roll on a Silpat).
  4. Work the caramel powder thru a sift into a desired pattern onto a silicone mat 1/32 inch (1mm) thick. The pattern can be done freestyle or using a stencil.
  5. Bake at 400°F (205°C) until the caramel becomes liquid, about 5 minutes.
  6. Upon removal from the oven shape the chocolate caramel brittle into curves, rolled around a parchment paper wrapped rolling pin or simply leave flat.
