Surely everyone knows that a lot of tasty and healthy dishes can be prepared from pumpkin, but only a few know that candy can be made from this vegetable. Don't be afraid to surprise your loved ones!
It is necessary
- - pumpkin pulp - 60 g;
- - cottage cheese - 40 g;
- - icing sugar - 30 g;
- - vanilla sugar - 1 sachet;
- - cinnamon - 0.25 teaspoon;
- - cookies - 100 g;
- - chocolate - 100 g.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, turn the pumpkin pulp into mashed potatoes. To do this, bake it in the oven until soft, then chop it with a blender. By the way, you can use a microwave instead of an oven.
Step 2
Then add the following ingredients to the pumpkin mass: ground cinnamon, powdered sugar, and cottage cheese along with vanilla sugar. Mix all ingredients thoroughly with each other, preferably with a blender.
Step 3
After placing the cookies in a plastic bag, crush them to a crumb state by going over them several times with a rolling pin. Then add the resulting pumpkin mixture into it. Stir everything until you get a mass with a homogeneous consistency. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Step 4
After two hours, mold balls from the chilled mass, the size of which is exactly the same as that of walnuts. For soft candy, let the figurines sit in the refrigerator overnight.
Step 5
Taking a toothpick, gently place a ball on it and dip it in the previously melted chocolate. Do these steps with all the other sweets.
Step 6
When the chocolate is completely frozen, this dessert can be served to the table. Pumpkin candy is ready!
