INSTRUCTIONS
1. Toast nuts in an oven at 180C for 10 mins. Chop coarsely by hand and
cool. (processor makes nuts oily). 2. Mix nuts, flour, sifted cocoa, and
spices in a bowl. 3. Make a toffee with the honey and sugar. Cook till the
soft ball stage. 4. Pour into dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon.
As it starts to get a little cooler you can get your hands in to mix it
well. 5. Press very firmly into a greased 20cm round cake tin (spring

sides of the panaforte from the tin. 8. Cool completely in the tin. 9.

with a sharp knife.
