Sesame based florentine with raisins, cranberry & almond by Esther Chan





1 cup florentine powder
1 cup blanched almond flakes
2/3 cup cranberry
2/3 cup raisin
1/2 cup roasted sesame

Method
1. Mix all in a bowl & spread thinly on tray lined with parchment paper

2. Bake @ 190c in pre-heated oven for 5-7mins or till almond flakes turn slightly brown

3. Swiftly cut when out of oven before it hardens. (If you like odd shapes, just break to size when cool)

Note
1. If it seems slightly wet when timer goes off it's ok cos it's melted sugar. Once it cools, it'll harden like crisps. If it's dark brown it means it's burnt.
2. Monitor first batch to determine time and adjust temp if necessary due different oven.
3. Cool thoroughly before storing in air tight container
4. Get creative and mix different kind of your favorite nuts, pumpkin & sunflower seeds, dried berries, etc

Warning: it is very addictive. 1 packet of 500g powder might not be enough
