Ingredients

The ingredients needed for your recipe.

  • 1 pack of Savane (approximately 300 g)
  • 100g of Nestlé Dessert milk chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons of liquid cream (≈ 30 ml)
  • 1 bowl of Chocapic (≈ 30 g)
  • A little icing sugar (for decoration)

Instructions

Follow these steps carefully to get the best results.

  • We start by crumbling the Savane into a large bowl (yes, we know, it's a little heartbreaking... but it's for a good cause).
  • In a saucepan, melt the chocolate with the liquid cream, gently, like a lullaby in a bain-marie (or in the microwave if you are in a hurry).
  • Mix this melted chocolate with the crumbled Savane until you obtain a smooth and very delicious paste.
  • Form small cones with your hands (a little sticky, but that's the magic of chocolate).
  • Next, carefully plant Chocapic petals all around the cone, overlapping them, to imitate the scales of a pine cone.
  • Sprinkle with icing sugar: it makes it look like snow, a chalet atmosphere guaranteed!

Gourmet Tip

For an even more melt-in-your-mouth version, add some chocolate chips to the mixture. (Warning: high risk of the pine cones disappearing quickly before even reaching the table 😉).
