This week’s Tuesday with Dorie ( Dorie’s Cookies) recipe is Chocolate and Walnut Bars. This recipe is based on a Roman treat rather than the melt and mix brownie I thought it would be.
There are quite a few steps to make these bars, including chopping and melting chocolate, blitzing walnuts, separating eggs and whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks, followed by making a chocolate glaze.
The end result is decadent and delicious. I didn’t have any cream, so instead of making Dorie’s ganache glaze, I made a glaze from chocolate, butter, glucose syrup and vegetable oil by Donna Hay. I think it worked pretty well as a substitute.
I only made a quarter of the recipe, which was plenty for me. The full batch uses 8 eggs.

Sounds delicious - love the sound of the glaze as I think I have some glucose syrup somewhere but never have cream
These were DELICIOUS but yes, the full recipe would make a LOT!
i like this one a lot, too, despite the pile up in my sink!
Hi Johanna, I waste cream when I buy it, so I wasn’t buying ut for this. Let me know if you’d like the glaze recipe.
I know - 8 eggs!! I had a conniption when I saw that.
LOL, yes, the dreaded washing up …
This was a wonderful dessert and I am glad it works with any nuts. Glad the glaze worked out for you.
