The story behind this recipe
I don't know if you've ever been tempted to eat a pine cone :)) but when it's made of chocolate, peanuts, and crunchy cereal, it can be a real attraction for both children and adults. It's tasty, creamy, and 100% fun to "build." I think it can also be a way to keep your kids busy for an hour (depending on how many you make).
The recipe, as you've gotten used to, is simple, but patience is the main ingredient. For 5 cones, you need: 1 large tablespoon of Nutella, 1/2 cup of peanut butter (I recommend the one from Solaris, I think it's about the cleanest one), 1 cup of powdered sugar (I made the powdered sugar from brown sugar), 3 tablespoons of 82% fat butter, 1 pinch of salt, and a little cinnamon if you like. And for the scales, I used "Chocapic" cereal from Nestle.
Mix all the ingredients and leave in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. Put the mixture into a piping bag and shape each pine cone, supporting the form with a skewer (you can use pretzel sticks if you don't have a skewer).
Try to stay in a cool room so the ingredients don't melt!
So, shape the cones, then attach the cereal scales one by one (as in the picture).
For a snowy effect, I dusted some powdered sugar (white this time) over them using a sieve.
It can be served immediately; otherwise, you can keep the dessert in the fridge. It can stay for up to 2 days.
Have fun!!!
