I think we all like chocolate, especially dark chocolate. That's why I think it's a good idea to give some delicious pistachio and flower chocolates for Valentine because besides being beautiful they are very rich and since they are small, eating them will not cause us so much regret as pleasure.
As a Valentine's gift they are great because we can do them ourselves since preparing these tablets is much simpler than you imagine, practically the work of peeling and chopping pistachios into small pieces.
Ingredients to make 8 chocolates
- 200 gr of cover chocolate, a tablespoon of cream, 24 pistachios, edible flower petals
How to make pistachio and flower chocolates for Valentine's Day
To make these chocolates we will need some chocolate molds like the ones you have in the pictures. They can be found in department stores and specialty confectionery stores or masonry shops and are made of plastic or silicone. If you do not get them, you can make chocolates instead of chocolates with silicone molds or with coolers and the effect will be the same.
In the microwave, we melt the chocolate cut into pieces, adding the tablespoon of liquid cream and melting it in two batches of one minute, so that it does not happen to us. Between batches and batches, we go around with some rods so that it melts well.
When the chocolate is well flowing, we fill the mold of the chocolates by passing a spatula or silicone tongue to leave it at the level of the chocolate and removing the excess. We peel the pistachios and break them into pieces.
Carefully sprinkle the chocolates with the pieces of pistachio and with the petals of edible flowers distributing them aesthetically. Let stand in the fridge so that the chocolate hardens and unmold them for consumption.
