Chocolates with walnut and tangerine

A very easy dessert that will delight you!!

Serves: 30 pieces
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Difficulty level: Easy
Cost: Quite expensive

Materials:

• 5 large tangerines
• 150 ml fresh tangerine juice
• 150 gr. sugar
• 150 gr. chopped walnuts
• 20 gr. cocoa
• 50 gr. breadcrumbs

For the icing

• 400 gr. couverture

Procedure:

Grind the walnuts moderately.

Wash the tangerines well.
Squeeze them and extract their juice.
Then we remove their skins, grind them in the mixer and put them in a saucepan with the sugar and juice to boil over medium heat.

Stir from time to time with a wooden spoon.

Let them boil well, until it becomes like a tight jam and our mixture for chocolates with walnuts comes off the pot, for about 10 minutes.

Let the mixture cool a bit.

Add the ground walnuts, breadcrumbs and cocoa.

We mix them with a spoon. After the mixture has cooled and we can shape it, we take a piece the size of a walnut and shape it into a ball or stick or whatever shape we want. Every time, before we take a piece of the mixture, we dip our fingers in the cognac.

Lay out the balls on a greased tray or parchment paper, and let them dry well.

Melt the chopped chocolate in a bain-marie.

One by one, drop the balls carefully into the bain-marie in the melted chocolate.
Take them out of the bain-marie using a fork and spoon.
Put them on a greased tray (or on parchment paper).

Let the chocolate dry and harden.

Keep them in an airtight utensil in the refrigerator. Enjoy!!
