Recipe Review - Chocolate Hazelnut Kisses
« on: December 17, 2009, 02:10:03 am »
Chocolate Hazelnut Kisses from  Festive Flavour cookbook page 24

I substituted the dark chocolate for milk chocolate so that children would enjoy the too plus I find dark chocolate is too rich and you can't eat as many ;) ;) ;)
I poured the mixture into those tiny coloured alfoil chocolate cups for a bitesized treat.  The mixture made 46 of them.
Excellent 5/5

Thanks for that Judy. It's very helpful when someone else has made things and commented on them.

Thanks Judy, I have these alfoil cups for when I got around to making the raw and dairy free chocolate....
These sound yum! Hoping to make some before Xmas Day.

These and the sugar coated almonds are my 2 most favourite things I've done this week.  Probably the easiest too. Are you going to use milk or dark chocolate ILB?  The milk ones are a perfect little bite sized treat and you can go back for seconds because they aren't as rich as dark chocolate. I got my little cups after xmas last year for 50 cents a packet.

That's cheap  :o :o

Maybe some of both. One isn't enough for me when it's milk chocoate and if I have too much my stomach gets upset, so I can be satisfied for longer with some good quality dark chocolate and not over indulge ;) :D. But for taste I LOVE milk choc!

I've just made these and, like Judy, put them into the little alfoil cups that I had left over from last year.
It's not a tidy business and I ended up covered in chocolate, but they look great and will make lovely gifts.
I'd give this a 5/5, too!

I hate to brag Amanda but I didn't spill one single drop ;D ;D ;D  I transferred the mixture into a small jug with a very narrow pouring lip and because the mixture is quite thick it was easy to control the pour. I made sure I had the little cups all touching each other and I even surprised myself at how easy it was. The only thing I got to lick was the spoon.

I'll have to try these, if only to see how messy I am. Knowing me the entire house would probably need an extra clean when I'd finished. I usually manage to get things all over me and everything around.
