  • Toast the nuts. Toasting the nuts will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a good quality chocolate. The chocolate is a key ingredient in triple nut bars, so it's important to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't over-mix the dough. Over-mixing the dough will make the bars tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will make it easier to handle and will help the bars hold their shape better.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set. Over-baking the bars will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
