5-Minute Olive Tapenade

  4.0 – 7 reviews  

This decadent, buttery toffee is covered in a layer of silky chocolate and sprinkled with salty almonds. The dish is simple to prepare and ideal for bake sales or gift-giving over the holidays. I consistently receive praise and requests for more of my toffee sweet.

Too salty as is…next time I will not use any added salt until after it is fully blended.

I fix this for my Bunko retired teachers, they love it with toasted baguettes.

I love tapenade and this is a good recipe, but I have to point out that the olives are themselves already very salty. I think it’s not necessary to add salt and the whole jar of capers – which is saltier than the olives. I would add max 1 tablespoon of capers, or less. I use to add chopped walnuts, just for crunch. Thank you.

This recipe has the ingredients that make a good tapenade. However it is missing some kick. I added red pepper flakes. A dash of cayenne would also work. I also added a tablespoon of chopped basil and a dash of olive oil that really enhanced the flavor. Jotoole
