Homemade sweets
If your loved ones once try homemade sweets, then you will simply be doomed to cook them regularly. Which is not at all surprising: it is rather difficult to find such a tasty delicacy in the store. Our candy assortment consists of two types of sweets. The first ones are chocolate, stuffed with candied fruit and fudge. The second ones are made from dates with nuts and icing. And both are equally great! Homemade sweets can not only be served at the table, but also presented as a gift, pre-packed in a beautiful box.
Ingredients
- dark chocolate (at least 75% cocoa beans) - 400 g
- white chocolate - 100 g
- candy toffee - 150 g
- sweets "Korovka" - 150 g
- candied fruit - 200 g
- dried dates - 200 g
- halves of walnut kernels - 80 g
- grated peel of 1 orange
Cooking
Step 1
Prepare chocolate for homemade sweets. Break both types into two ladles, then, stirring with a spoon, melt separately in a hot water bath or low heat.
Step 2
Coat paper molds with a diameter of 2.5-3 cm with a brush with a thin layer of hot chocolate. Place them on a plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes. Then coat with a second layer of chocolate. Place back in the refrigerator.
Step 3
While the chocolate is in the molds, make the fondant for the candy filling. Melt butterscotch and sweets "Korovka" in a hot water bath. You can add a tablespoon of heavy cream.
Step 4
Cut the candied fruits for the candy filling into small cubes and arrange them in chocolate molds. Pour the melted fondant to the top, releasing it from the pastry bag. Cover with a little chocolate. Let cool, then carefully remove the paper molds.
Step 5
Wash the dates in running water and dry thoroughly with a paper towel. On each, make a longitudinal incision and remove the bone. Put a nut kernel in its place.
Step 6
Prick the stuffed date on a fork and dip into the remaining melted chocolate. Garnish with orange zest and let glaze set. Serve ready-made homemade sweets for tea or coffee.
