Bajadera (Croatian pronunciation: [bajaděːra]) is a praline from nougat which is enriched with almond, hazelnuts from the species of Corylus avellana or walnuts from the Juglans species which gives it a specific and recognizable taste.

Preparation

The "non-commercial" version of Bajadera is made from brewed sugar and water, that is moved from the heat source and has the added mixture of grounded almonds (or walnuts, or hazelnuts), cookies and butter or margarine. Half of the mixture is put in a shallow container, and the other half mix in 100 g of molten chocolate. That chocolate mixture is overflowed over the first half.
