Prepare the Chocolate:
Start by taking a microwave-safe bowl. Ensure that the bowl is completely dry before use. Add the chopped chocolate bar pieces into the bowl and microwave them at 30-second intervals. Stir the chocolate with a spoon each time to avoid overheating, and continue microwaving until the chocolate is completely melted. Be sure not to overcook the chocolate to prevent burning. -
Mix the Almond and Walnut Dough:
In another bowl, combine the almond meal (badam powder), powdered walnuts, and condensed milk. Add about 2-3 tablespoons of the melted chocolate and mix everything together. Knead the mixture until it is well combined and the ingredients are evenly distributed. -
Form the Dough into Balls:
Grease your palms lightly with some oil or butter to prevent sticking, and shape the mixture into a dough. Divide the dough into 17-18 equal parts and roll them into bite-sized balls. Arrange the balls on a greased baking tray or a regular plate. -
Freeze the Balls:
Place the balls in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up. -
Coat with Chocolate:
Once the balls have firmed up, take the tray out of the freezer. Now, carefully dip each ball into the remaining melted chocolate. Using a fork, coat each ball evenly with chocolate. Tap the fork slightly to let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the ball back on a greased plate. -
Chill to Set:
Repeat the dipping process with the remaining balls, placing each one on a greased plate or a tray lined with parchment paper. Place the tray in the fridge and let the chocolates set until completely dry and firm.
Serving Suggestions:
Once the chocolates are fully set, they can be served as a delightful dessert for any occasion. Enjoy them as a sweet ending to a wonderful dinner, especially after a meal like Roasted Vegetable Flan in Herbed Sauce and French Onion Soup, for an extra special touch. These Homemade Almond Walnut Chocolates also make great gifts or party favors for your friends and family.
Enjoy the richness of homemade chocolate with the crunch of walnuts and the aromatic essence of almonds, creating a treat that everyone will love!
