Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In double boiler, melt chocolate and mix in finely chopped pecans. Let cool.
- 2. In mixing bowl, cream butter, sugar, salt and vanilla.
- 3. Gradually add flour and mix thoroughly.
- 4. Carefully revel chocolate nut mixture into dough (cookies should look marbled when on cookies sheet)
- 5. Drop by teaspoonful on cookie sheet. Grease the bottom of a glass and dip in sugars. Gently press cookie dough down with glass (makes them marbled)
- 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will have a big impact on the final flavor of the revel bars. Look for chocolate that is at least 70% cocoa solids.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the revel bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the revel bars until they are just set: The revel bars should be set in the center, but they should still have a slight jiggle to them. If you overbake them, they will be dry and crumbly.
- Let the revel bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Chocolate nut revel bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their rich, chocolatey flavor and crunchy nuts, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give chocolate nut revel bars a try.
