Candies with mascarpone and white chocolate
Method of preparation
- mascarpone - 260 g
- white chocolate - 200 g
- powdered sugar - about 85 g (to taste)
- hazelnuts - roasted, peeled
- coconut flakes - for rolling
- Melt the white chocolate in a water bath at no more than 60 °C. It should not become too liquid. Use a special chocolate melting agent.
- In a bowl, put the mascarpone and mix until smooth with the melted chocolate and powdered sugar. Taste and add more powdered sugar if necessary - the candies should be sweet, but you still have to decide how sweet you want them. If you use regular white chocolate, keep in mind that in this case it is sweeter than the one that is special for melting.
- When you have a smooth and homogeneous cream, put it in the refrigerator until it sets nicely and is easy to shape into candies.
- Prepare a bowl of coconut flakes and toast the peeled hazelnuts separately. The amount of hazelnuts depends on the size of the candies you are making.
- Take a little of the hardened mascarpone and white chocolate mixture. Shape into balls, flatten them and place a hazelnut in the middle. Then close and roll into a ball again, then drop into the bowl with the shavings to coat well with coconut.
- We proceed in this way until the products are finished.
- Place each mascarpone and white chocolate candy in a paper capsule and serve to your guests. You can also arrange in gift boxes for special people.
