Ingredients:

  • 100g Godiva 72% Dark Chocolate, chopped
  • 6 Godiva Dark Chocolate Truffles
  • 4 Godiva Biscuits, Milk Chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 80ml finely chopped toasted pistachios
  • 8 small Forelle pears, washed and dried well

Instructions:

  1. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside. In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of hot (not boiling) water, melt the chopped chocolate with truffles, stirring occasionally, until smooth; keep warm.

  2. In a small bowl, combine the chopped cookies with pistachios; set aside.

  3. Holding a pear by the stem, dip the bottom two-thirds of the pear into the melted chocolate, leaving the top third uncoated. Allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.

  4. Sprinkle the bottom third of the chocolate-coated area with the pistachio mixture until evenly coated; place on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate for about 1 hour or until the chocolate is hardened.

Tip: If desired, insert a skewer into the top of the pear for dipping.

Enjoy wrapping these chocolate-covered pears in cellophane and tying them with a bow for an impressive hostess gift, or use them as a stunning centerpiece for your holiday table!
