CONSONGELI (CHESTNUT TURNOVERS) 
1 lb. raw chestnuts, boiled and put through sieve
1 tbsp. orange peel
1 tbsp. lemon peel
1 tbsp. citron peel
1/2 c. chopped toasted almonds
1 tbsp. chopped raisins
1/4 c. milk chocolate, chopped
Enough honey to make soft dough
Vanilla or whiskey for flavor - mix well

Use same dough as Cantelata. Make turnovers like you would make ravioli. Fry in deep fat and then put a little vino cotti on top and you can sprinkle chopped nuts over top.

Hi, I am so happy to find the chestnut turnover recipe. It says to use the same pastry as cantelata, but I can't find it. Would you please share that recipe? Thank you so very much.
Buona fortuna
