1
Cut a baguette into 7 - 8 mm slices.
-
2
If you are using a big loaf, adjust the size.
-
3
Thinly spread butter which was brought to room temperature (or warmed in microwave) on one side of each slice, using a butter knife.
-
4
Place the rusks on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
-
5
The side coated with butter should be up.
-
6
Bake for 20 minutes in a preheated oven at 150C
-
7
While baking, cut chocolate bars into pieces.
-
8
I recommend using a knife,but you can also break it with your hands.
-
9
Once the rusks are baked, turn them over and place chocolate pieces on top.
-
10
You can decide the amount, but it's best to put a mound of chocolate pieces.
-
11
Once all rusks are covered with chocolate, put them back in the oven.
-
12
You don't have to turn on the oven.
-
13
5 - 10 minutes in the oven makes chocolate melt using the residual heat.
-
14
When the chocolate melts, take out the baking tray and smooth out the surface of the chocolate using a butter knife.
-
15
Place them on a cake rack and let the chocolate harden in a cool place.
-
16
If your room temperature is warm, then put them in the refrigerator.
-
17
Once the chocolate is hard, it's done!
-
18
You can bake many of them and wrap them in a bag showing the black and white side to look like the Othello game.
-
19
Kids will love them too!
-

You can also make a marble pattern by mixing white and dark chocolate evenly.
-
21
*For your reference, you can make about 40 - 50 rusks with one baguette and it takes 50 g of butter.
-
22
With one chocolate bar you can make about 10 rusks.
-
23
*You can use unsalted butter, but its saltiness overpowers the rich chocolate taste and makes it a bit heavy.
-
24
*You can also bake them without butter, but they will turn out more like bread + chocolate instead of rusks.
