hazelnut praline
Nutty caramel candy
Hazelnut praline is a confection made by caramelizing sugar with roasted hazelnuts, then cooling and often grinding the result into a paste or brittle.
The paste serves as a filling for chocolates and pastries, while the brittle can be crushed for texture: The chocolate truffles were filled with hazelnut praline.
