Preparation Steps
1
Sift the flour into a large bowl, add a pinch of salt, and create a well in the center. Crack in the eggs and gradually incorporate them into the flour. Add a little water as needed to form a pliable dough.
2
Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.
3
For the filling, finely chop the candied almonds and combine them with the mascarpone, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth, sweet filling.
4
Roll out the dough thinly. Evenly space small spoonfuls of the almond filling on one half of the dough.
5
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling. Use a ravioli cutter or knife to cut out the ravioli. Press the edges firmly to seal and prevent the filling from escaping during cooking.
6
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and lightly salt it. Drop in the ravioli and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
7
Drain the ravioli. In a skillet, melt the butter and gently toss the ravioli to lightly caramelize them.
8
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, then add the grated white chocolate and stir until smooth and you have a silky sauce.
9
To serve, drizzle with the white chocolate sauce and sprinkle with extra candied almonds. Serve warm!
