cinnamon and white chocolate cantucci.
Cantucci strikes again.
This time, I've tried a new combination: cinnamon and white chocolate bits.
I apologize for the lack of a macro shot.
My original plan was to do a pistachio-white chocolate combination, but then I realized how expensive they were (last time there was a 2-for sale). The white chocolate bar was only 89p, and I had the other ingredients at home, so that pretty much determined what the outcome would be.
They tasted pretty fabulous. Ariel was a huge fan. One of my other flatmates even paid me for one. The cinnamon flavor was quite subtle (I should've added maybe another teaspoon). You could definitely taste the white chocolate; unfortunately, I forgot how sweet white chocolate is, so I didn't decrease the amount of sugar I put in....aka this was DEFINITELY a dessert (as opposed to a morning coffee accompaniment). Well, at least I know now so that when I make the pistachio-white chocolate batch, I should balance out the sweetness.
I wish I took a photo of the plain (amaretto/vanilla) batch that I made for a friend's whiskey tasting party. They were literally two-bite size and absolutely adorable!
