Pepita Chocolate Drops with Sea Salt and Pistachi

Pepita Chocolate Drops with Sea Salt and Pistachi



Ingredients:

1/4 cup roasted, salted pistachios, shelled
1/4 cup pepitas
100g dark chocolate
a pinch of sea salt


Preparation:

-Line two metal baking trays with greaseproof paper and place them in the freezer.
-Grill the pepitas for a few minutes until they start to brown. Set aside and let cool.
-Smash the pistachios into small pieces and set aside.
-Using a double boiler, heat the chocolate until it is completely melted.
-Remove the baking trays from the freezer and carefully spoon drops of chocolate onto the greaseproof paper. Once you’ve done a few drops, sprinkle with the pistachios and pepitas. Finish with a slight dusting of sea salt.
-Repeat until all the ingredients are used up then put the chocolates into the freezer to harden. Tip: store them in the freezer and don’t leave them hanging out at room temp – they are thin so will melt into a gooey lump pretty quickly.
