Petit Fours Recipe

Petit Fours Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chocolate Truffle

   Fold in the candied fennel seeds and butter until well combined. Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate until set (about 1-2 hours).

2. 2

   Shape the Truffles

   Once the mixture is set, use a melon baller or small scoop to form small balls. Roll each ball in your hands to smooth them out, then dust with cocoa powder or chopped nuts if desired.

3. 3

   Prepare Kaju Katli

   In a food processor, grind the cashews into a fine powder. In a non-stick pan, combine the cashew powder, sugar, milk, and cardamom powder. Cook on low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and starts to leave the sides of the pan.

4. 4

   Shape Kaju Katli

   Once the mixture is ready, spread it onto a greased plate or parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to flatten it to a desired thickness. Cut into diamond shapes while still warm.

5. 5

   Assemble and Serve

   Arrange the chocolate truffles and kaju katli on a decorative platter. Serve at room temperature.
