Serves around 12
Preparation time: 15 mins
Cooking time: 15 mins
Ingredients
1½ cups (335g) white sugar
½ cup (125ml) honey
⅓ cup (80ml) water
2 tablespoons golden syrup
2 teaspoons bicarbonate soda
200g dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions
1. Grease and line an oven tray with baking paper.
2. Combine sugar, honey, water, and golden syrup in a medium saucepan. Place over a low heat and cook, stirring, (occasionally brushing down the side of the pan and the spoon with a pastry brush dipped in water to remove any sugar crystals) for 5-7 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and bring to the boil. Cook without stirring, for 5-7 minutes or until the syrup reaches crack stage (154°C/309°F) on a sugar thermometer. Remove from heat and set aside for bubbles to subside.
3. Add the bicarbonate soda and quickly stir with a wooden spoon until combined (the mixture will bubble and foam). Pour onto the tray and set aside to cool completely.
4. Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir occasionally with a metal spoon until chocolate melts and is smooth. Transfer to a small plastic bag. Use scissors to snip off a corner of the bag.
5. Turn the honeycomb onto a clean surface. break into large pieces. Drizzle chocolate over honeycomb pieces and put aside to set. Store in an airtight container.
