So I sat yesterday and thought: can I do something cool with my own hands? Well, to take part in the competition Steem Women Club Community Contest #8 ' Handicrafts '! Once in my youth I knitted and embroidered a little ... but something didn't last long, it's not mine. I am an organizer, very restless, but creative. I love beauty. I used to make bouquets from candies, but that too in the past ... There is nothing to write about! And so I thought over coffee, and picked up the last candy I made with my own hands!

So can I write about the candies I make with my own hands? This idea inspired me. I came up with chocolates with walnuts or sesame seeds when I visited the Lviv Chocolate Workshop, and there are a variety of handmade candies. They are usually chic, but expensive. On average, one candy costs $ 0.5!

I am a gourmet. That's why I organized a coffee gourmet club :) And I love something delicious and very exclusive and natural for coffee. I can't eat consumer chocolate from the store now. So let's do!

My ingredients today: this is a good butter brand "Yagotynske", 82.5% fat (100 grams); cocoa - 2 tablespoons; honey to taste; sesame and walnuts. First you need to peel the nuts and grind them in a coffee grinder. It turns out such a delicious fatty mixture.

I will say at once, walnuts are not easy to grind, it takes a long time, but it is worth it, because they add a unique slightly bitter taste to candy. My daughter Victoria loves only these. But the younger Darinka loves sesame seeds more. Sesame is easier to grind.

When our loose mixes are ready, I start preparing the base for the candies: mix butter, cocoa and honey with a fork. The next step: spoon the balls of chocolate butter and put in plates with nuts and sesame seeds and form round candies. From this mixture we got 20 pieces of candy!

Now put them in the fridge for half an hour so that they become solid and then they are ready to eat. We found at home a box of Assorted store candies and put our homemade truffles there. Please see what beauty we have created. The cost of our one candy turned out to be UAH 5 (about $ 0.15), which is three times cheaper than in a chocolate workshop!

Well, now I'm going to enjoy these gourmet candies for my coffee for two days! But you need to securely hide a box of candy from children and husband to give two candies to each coffee twice a day )))
