Chestnut & Chocolate Bites

INGREDIENTS
- 1 sponge base, approx. 18×18 cm and 1 cm thick
- 1 jar chestnut fruit preserve (335g)
- 100g walnut halves
- 300g dark chocolate
METHOD
- Roughly chop the walnuts and stir them into the chestnut fruit preserve.
- Line a square tin with baking paper and place the sponge base inside. Spread the chestnut mixture evenly over the sponge and place in the freezer for a few hours until firm.
- Finely chop the chocolate and melt it gently over a bain-marie (double boiler).
- Remove the sponge from the tin and cut it into approximately 20 small squares.
- Dip each piece into the melted chocolate (it should not be too hot), allow the excess to drip off, and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper. If you like, drizzle extra chocolate over the top using a toothpick or the back of a spoon to create a decorative finish.
- Place in the fridge until ready to serve, allowing the chocolate to set completely.
