Great Cappuccino Topping

It’s me myself and my awesome cappuccino! Indulging mornings or afternoons need a savory crunchy cappuccino.This Praline topping has it all to make a major difference in the way you serve a latte or a cappuccino (anything that has a sumptuous mousse). It can be refrigerated for at least a month if it lasts that long 😉 Ingredients: 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup mixed nuts or just almonds 1. Heat the sugar over high heat to dissolve it by just tilting the pan carefully to move it around until color starts to change into caramel. 2. Quickly add the nuts and swirl them in the pan to coat them. 3. Transfer the praline to an oiled baking tray and let it cool for an 1 hour before breaking it. Tip: I’ve put it in plastic bag and smash the praline pieces with a rolling pin to get a dusty praline. Enjoy your Coffee. The Urban Apron
