Ingredients
  

  • 2 pears
  • 4 Lindor truffles
  • puff pastry
  • 0.5 lemon juice
  • 1 whisked egg yolk for the egg wash
  • 2 apples
  • 4 soft caramels
  • 6 fl oz water
  • 8 oz sugar
  • 0.5 lemon juice
  • 1 whisked egg for the egg wash
  • 1 oz powdered sugar for the egg wash
  • 1 pretzel stick

Instructions
 

  • 1. Cut the pears in half and remove the core using a teaspoon. Place the Lindor truffles inside the hollowed out pears.
    2. Place the pear halves on top of the puff pastry with the side that's cut facing downward. Cut the puff pastry around the pears, leaving a border about as thick as your thumb. Optionally, cut a stalk and leaves into the pastry.
    3. Make several cuts into the pears and squeeze lemon juice over them. Brush the egg wash over the pastry border.
    4. Bake the filled pears at 350°F for 20 minutes.
  • 1. Cut the apples in half, remove their cores using a teaspoon, and make several cuts in the skin.
    2. Boil the water with the sugar and lemon juice in a pan. Cook both sides of the apple halves until they are soft.
    3. Fill the hollowed out apples with caramel candies and place the drained apple halves on the puff pastry. Cut the puff pastry around the apples, leaving a border about as thick as your thumb. Optionally, cut a stalk and leaves into the pastry.
    4. Spread a smooth mix of egg and powdered sugar onto the apples and the pastry border. Press a pretzel stick into the dough for the "stalk."
    5. Bake everything at 350°F for 20 minutes.
