Preparation
To make the Chocolate Christmas Tree with Dried Fruit, melt the milk chocolate in a double boiler. On a tray lined with parchment paper, place six round molds of different sizes; pour the melted chocolate inside, trying to make discs of the same thickness (you can use a toothpick to help, dipping it in the chocolate).
Also melt the white chocolate in a double boiler. On the same tray where the milk chocolate discs were formed, place a star-shaped mold and pour the melted white chocolate inside. Put the tray in the fridge for 15 minutes to let the chocolate set.
Whip the cream until stiff and fold in the hazelnut cream, mixing with a movement from bottom to top. Then transfer the cream into a piping bag with a star nozzle.
Remove the molds from the chocolate, very gently to avoid breaking the discs and the star. Take the largest disc and place it on a plate and form a layer of cream. Proceed this way with all the other discs, placing them according to diameter: from largest to smallest. Finish with the cream.
Decorate the edges of the tree with caramelized dried fruit, colored balls, and colored stars. Place the white chocolate star on the top of the tree.
