How to Make Choco Crossies (Schoko Crossies) at Home

Course German Candy, German Foods and Recipes, German Recipes
Servings 30 pieces

Ingredients
  

  • 125 gr. 3/4 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 125 gr. 3/4 cup Milk Chocolate Chips
  • 20 gr. 1 Tbl. Shortening
  • 60 gr. 2 cups Cornflakes
  • 60 gr. 1/2 cup Slivered Almonds (if you have nut allergies in your world, substitute 30 gr. Cornflakes for the Almonds)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a work space by covering a cookie sheet with parchment paper. (You can use foil) This keeps the choco crossie from sticking.
  • If you are in a warm area (or in a hurry) make sure there is a space in the refrigerator to place the cookie sheet of choco crossies.
  • Measure out the Chocolates
  • Measure out the Shortening
  • Measure out the Cornflakes and Almond Slivers
  • Melt the chocolates and shortening, and stir until smooth. I used a microwave to melt the chocolate (go 30 seconds, then stir... then 30 seconds and stir... until the chocolate is smooth), If you prefer, you can use a double boiler.
  • Either way, be sure not to get ANY WATER into the chocolate.
  • Add the Cornflakes and the slivered Almonds into the melted chocolate.
  • Stir with a spatula until the nuts and flakes are COMPLETELY COATED.
  • Use 2 Spoons to scoop and shape the crossies into a sort of cookie/mound shape. Place on the parchment paper.
  • Let harden on the counter or in the refrigerator.
  • In the unlikely event that they aren't all eaten immediately, store in an airtight container.
