Befana Brooms 2 Ingredients

The Befana Brooms 2 Ingredients, are so easy to make that you will be eager to prepare them.

An undisputed symbol of the Befana, the broom is the means by which, in the children’s imagination, the old woman moves, carrying sweets or coal, and usually wraps up the long cycle of holiday meals.

They are fun to make and very easy, just break the pretzel sticks and melt some excellent dark or milk chocolate, and in a few minutes, they are ready.

The salty and sweet contrast is very interesting and enjoyable, often loved by children and not only.

And since I’m almost certain that the pretzels are still in the pantry, left over from various appetizers, and the chocolate was bought for making logs, glazes, etc., use up these leftovers, make the children happy, and round off the holidays cheerfully with the Befana Brooms 2 Ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 9 pretzel sticks
  • 2.3 oz 50% dark chocolate

Steps

Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler and let it cool slightly; transfer it to a piping bag and cut the tip.

  • Lay the long stick on the parchment paper (if it is too long, break off a piece).

  • Arrange the short pieces trying to recreate the shape of a broom.

  • Write with the chocolate on the straw pieces and in the empty spaces.

  • With top to bottom motions, form the straw threads with the chocolate.

  • Draw the broom knot with the chocolate.

  • Let it harden and then remove gently. The Befana Brooms 2 Ingredients are ready.

Notes:

If you have leftover chocolate, squeeze it onto a piece of aluminum foil, let it harden, and then save it for future use.

Storage:

The Befana Brooms 2 Ingredients can be kept at room temperature on a tray or plate, trying not to overlap them to avoid breaking.
