Once girls from Kaunas invited me to join small party called “50 cocoa shades”. I scrolled a lot of recipes and tried three of them, but only one was the one (others were good enough to eat, but just it). These nuts are very contagious – you start to nibble and forget to stop. They are not too sweet, you perfectly taste hazelnuts, so I liked them very very much.
Cocoa dusted hazelnuts

Calories: 160 kcal / 1 serving
Ingredients:
1 cup = 237 ml
- 2 cups hazelnuts (or other nuts, almonds suits perfectly too)
- 1 tsp. vanilla sugar
- 2 tbsps. cocoa powder

- 2 tsps. cocoa powder
- 2 tsps. icing sugar
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 135˚C. Line baking tray with silicon mat or baking paper.
- Mix all ingredients, except nuts, in a bowl. Then add nuts and mix to coat them. Pour into the baking tray.
- Bake in an oven 35-40 minutes, mixing every 10 minutes. In the end of baking be carefull and watch out of nut burning (everytime I bake 40 minutes, but didn’t met this situation).
- Leave nuts to cool in a baking tray. Then sprinkle them with cocoa powder and icing sugar mixure, mix well.
- Put hazelnuts in a beautiful bowl. Leftover of cocoa and icing sugar put in a small jar – you can use it again if nuts will start to stick.
- Enjoy!

Chocolate butter cookies
I chose them because in the recipe it was written that they don’t spread. Yes, it’s correct. But I expected more crunchy, and they were soft. But they hole the form very well and are really delicious. I gave them as a present in my job. They disappeared in minutes 🙂 And I was asked for the recipes.
Brazilian coffee with cocoa
Weekend is a perfect time for relaxing with this sweet and delightful drink. I say it’s almost dessert. So if you like coffee and cocoa, give this drink a try.
Pumpkin blondies with chocolate and pecans
It was the first time when cake dissapeared so quickly. And even more – almost everyone asked for the recipe. 🙂 I was really pleased. So I write down here the recipe without a queue (in the queue there are five more recipes).
Almond cake with mascarpone “Hello Kitty”
I’m happy and proud. This cake is not just tasty but very cute 🙂 It was made for my daughter’s 5th birthday. But presenting it only now because somewhere at this time my blog is celebrating 3 year old birthday and at the same time I celebrated my birthday anniversary. But this year birthday was different – I didn’t do anything, just celebrated 🙂
Chocolate-Coconut Granola
A few weeks ago I started to think that it would be good to make chocolate granola. And one day it was time for that. Although it’s more cocoa granola than chocolate, but anyway, it was good combination with coconuts.
