Valentine's Day Hazelnut Chocolates

The best and most delicious gift for your loved one for Valentineʼs Day! On Valentine’s Day, it’s customary in my family to give sweets, and it’s not surprising, because my husband and I have true sweet tooths (though I’m still far from being like my husband, you don’t have to feed him meat, but you can’t live without sweets))) And how nice it is when sweets are made by hand. I offer you a recipe for very tasty rich and aromatic sweets, they turn out moderately sweet and nutty, by the way, you can choose the nuts at your discretion :)
