Today's assignment was to design and make a candy bar. It had to have 3 elements and here's what I came up with...I decided to do a semi-spherical shape. A bar shaped candy bar seems like it's been done to death. The outer shell is tempered dark chocolate and under that is a thin layer of Oreo cookie crumbs. Working from the top down (inside) is a layer of chocolate ganache flavored with Amaretto, a layer of marshmallow and a layer of chewy, chocolate caramel on the bottom.
We had to come up with a name for our creation and it took me forever to select one. After many hours of thought, I decided to name it "The Natty Bumpo". Natty never talked much but I think he would have liked this....
