Post by: isi on March 10, 2010, 01:35:57 pm: Hello :)

Almonds are mandatory here in Portugal at any Easter table:
Chocolate or Sugar in any variant!

These are my favorite:

*: kept stopping, getting stuck.
Used light brown sugar, should it have been Demerara?

After 6 mins had to add water as kept getting stuck.

Now on second cooking in *: before oven.

Used mix of almonds, hazelnuts and cashews. Doing a Gert and emptying the cupboard.

I used soft brown sugar DJ.It does sound that it's stuck but the TM should sort of stop and readjust itself and then start going again.I hope you know what I mean ??? I've only ever used almonds,not mixed nuts.The finished result is very good.Gave away loads last year as presents.
