STRUDEL WITH PEARS AND CHOCOLATE

Strudel is a typical Austrian sweet of Byzantine origin. In Italy is typical in the regions neighboring Austria, especially in Trentino South Tyrol. The original strudel ingredients are apples, raisin and pine nuts, wrapped into a thin pastry dusted with powdered sugar. Today I propose you an original version of strudel, stuffed with pears, chocolate, pine nuts and caramel. Even the dough is made of cocoa to obtain an explosion of flavor!

12/11/2014 by Filippo Trapella 2 Comments

Preparing the chocolate salami is very simple, the ingredients are few, easy to find, and does not require cooking. To increase the realism, sprinkle the chocolate salami with powdered sugar. It will resemble classic Italian salami and it will be difficult to distinguish from a real one!
