Description
Dear cooks, on the eve of the Catholic Christmas in the Czech Republic, all Housewives bake an incredible variety of cookies. Without it is simply impossible to imagine the occasion. Bake in advance, a cookie is stored in closed cartons 10-15 days and that only gets tastier and more tender. Today I want to present to your court their "Hedgehogs" with walnut-chocolate filling. They are not only funny and like the children, but also very, very tasty.

Cooking
Sifted flour mixed with powdered sugar, soft butter and egg yolk. Knead the dough, wrap it in foil and put in refrigerator for 1 hour. I always prepare the dough the day before to save time.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Rinse the raisins with hot water, discard in durlag. Chocolate chop with a knife into small pieces, if the raisins are large, it is also a little chop with a knife, nuts grind. All together to mix well.
From test to separate small piece, roll it with rolling pin and cut circles with a diameter of about 6 see
A circle of dough slightly flatten with your fingers. Who doesn't like to mess around with a rolling pin, maybe just make dough balls the size of a large walnut, and then palm to flatten them into a flapjack.
In the middle of lepeshechki to put a bit of filling.
Close up the edges to make a ball. From the resulting ball to make the shape of a pear.
Hedgehogs put on a baking tray lined with baking paper and place in preheated oven. Bake at 180 degrees for about 12-15 minutes. Ready cookies cool completely.
Prepare two bowls. One to pour the hot frosting into another sprinkle of coconut shavings. I used store-bought frosting from Dr. Adera, she freezes, but it is plastic and does not break. To take "hedgehog" over the narrow end (this is head), and back to dip in the frosting.
Then immediately dip in coconut. Spread hedgehogs for glaze to harden. Then glaze again be heated to become liquid. Dipping the match into the frosting and make hedgehog eyes and a nose.
As soon as the icing on the eyes and noses hardens, fold hedgehogs in a box, for example, from shoes with baking paper, cover and hide them at least a week love to eat that are in the environment.
Just in time for the holiday hedgehogs reached the desired softness, taste and aroma.
Bon appetit! Happy new year!
