I haven't done a post since last year as I have been busy completing a professional wine course, but I am back and ready to give you a wonderful recipe for some homemade choccies!
I made these a lot at Christmas to give to friends as presents, they are so versatile and easy to make. You can change any of the ingredients to what you have available, and they look great too which is always a plus!
How to make: (makes about 24)
- 200g Good quality Dark or Milk chocolate
- Roasted Pistachios
- Mixed roasted nuts
- Dried Cranberries
- Other dried fruits
- Pinch of salt
(You can use any kind of nuts or dried fruit that you like)
Recipe:
- Start by chopping up your nuts and dried fruit in to smaller pieces and arrange on a plate so you have them ready to use.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Then melt the chocolate over a pan of boiling water (or in the microwave if you prefer). Leave to cool slightly.
- Drop spoonfuls of the melted chocolate on to the lined trays and then sprinkle over a little salt on each drop. Drop the chopped nuts and fruit on top and then leave to set in the fridge- about an hour should set them.
- I put the chocolate drops in to clear bags and tied them with a bow- perfect for a present at any time of year!
* You don't have to use fruit and nuts at all, I have used mini marshmallows, chopped up chocolate bars and sprinkles on them which work great too.
