  1. Hazelnut Crunch
    • 180 gr. butter waffles
    • 100 gr. toasted hazelnuts
    • 100 gr. cocoa butter
    • 50 gr. white chocolate

    • Begin by toasting the hazelnuts in the oven for 20 minutes at 150Āŗ C.
    • Once the hazelnuts have cooled, place them in a food processor along with the wafers and grind until a texture similar to sand or crushed biscuits is obtained.
    • Next, melt the white chocolate and cocoa butter, either in a double boiler or in the microwave at low power and in short bursts, and add it to the hazelnut and wafer mixture.
    • Mix well until obtaining a homogeneous mixture and divide into three equal parts using a scale.
    • On parchment paper and using a square mould 20 cm on each side, form three square sheets of around 5 mm thick.
    • Finally, reserve in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until the crunchy sheets are completely frozen.
  2. Hazelnut Namelaka Cream
    • 400 gr. heavy cream (35% fat)
    • 375 gr. white chocolate
    • 200 gr. hazelnut or whole milk
    • 80 gr. hazelnuts
    • 5 gr. gelatine

    • First, hydrate the gelatine in cold water for a minimum of 10 minutes.
    • On a baking tray, place the hazelnuts and toast them at 150Āŗ C for 20 minutes.
    • Then, let them cool slightly and grind them with a food processor until obtaining a liquid and shiny paste.
    • In a saucepan, heat hazelnut milk and cream over medium heat until it starts to boil. At that point, turn off the heat and add the hydrated gelatine.
    • Next, pour the hot mixture over the white chocolate and integrate it with a rubber spatula. Add the hazelnut paste and emulsify the mixture with a hand whisk.
    • Transfer the mixture to a container and cover it with cling film making contact with the cream. Let it cool and store it in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  3. Milk Chocolate Covering
    • 300 gr. milk chocolate (43%)
    • 70 gr. sunflower or neutral oil

    • Start by melting the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave in short bursts and at low power, making sure not to burn the chocolate.
    • Then, add the oil and incorporate it with a spatula.
    • Set aside.
  4. Assembly
    • 15 gr. chocolate dark (70%)
    • 3 gr. sunflower or neutral oil

    • Begin by placing the square mould 20 cm on each side on a plate and placing one of the hazelnut crunch sheets inside.
    • Then, take out of the fridge the Hazelnut Namelaka cream, lightly beat it with a whisk to make its texture creamier and easier to work with, and pour half of it over the crunch sheet. Spread it with a spatula to obtain a uniform layer.
    • Next, place a second sheet on top, pour the other half of Hazelnut Namelaka cream, spread with a spatula, and put the third and last crunch sheet on top.
    • Now, put the cake in the freezer for a minimum of 6 hours or until the cake is completely frozen.
    • After the time has passed, heat our milk chocolate covering to 35Āŗ C, take the cake out of the freezer, place it on a rack, and cover it with the covering.
    • Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate with the oil, let it cool to 35Āŗ C, and decorate by applying thin lines on the cake.
    • Let it thaw at room temperature for about 3 hours, depending on the room temperature, and store it in the fridge until consumed. Leave at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
