Recipe Notes

  • I am using compound chocolate, if you are using regular chocolate then it needs to be tempered before using.
  • Chocolate can be melted using a microwave too.
  • Instead of nutella, you can use any filling like peanut butter or jam.
  • A combination of dark and milk chocolate also tastes great.
