Description

The caggionetti from Abruzzo are delicious fried sweets, perfect for the Christmas holidays. This version, with a filling rich in chickpeas and dark chocolate, is a real surprise for the palate. The recipe is a bit laborious, but the end result fully repays the effort. I always prepare them during the holidays and they disappear in the blink of an eye! The contrast between the crunchy pastry and the soft and delicious filling is simply irresistible. They can be prepared in advance and fried shortly before serving, so you always have a fresh and fragrant dessert. A tip: try adding a pinch of cinnamon to the filling for an even more Christmassy touch!
