Pistachio and Cranberry Crispy Chocolates…
In the last year, I have experimented a lot with chocolate. I have a sweet tooth. When you look at chocolate recipes online, it seems complicated… melting in a double boiler, etc…
And when it’s complicated, it’s easier to fail…
I like simplicity, speed and above all ease in cooking. Once I understand the principle, I get to work to simplify as much as possible. So here is the result of several experiments…
Original recipe from me !
Difficulty: Super easy.
Time: 10-15 min.
Melt 3-4 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave. Yes, yes, in the microwave! The trick is to do it gradually. You heat for 30 seconds at a time and then take it out and stir it a little each time. The first time you take it out, it’s still hard, but stir it a little. Usually about 120 seconds is enough but it varies depending on the power of the microwave. You want a soft creamy consistency.
In another cup, you pre-mixed about 2-3 cups of a mixture of cranberries (1/3), pistachios (1/3) and a crunchy cereal (1/3) here I used Vector.
Once the chocolate is melted, you integrate the chocolate mixture and you put it in a silicone mold that you have just lightly oiled or buttered beforehand.
You send it to the freezer or outside for 15 minutes and that’s it!
Super delicious!
