Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F). Using a sharp knife, score an 'X' on the flat side of each chestnut to prevent them from bursting during roasting.

- 5. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the milk, fresh cream, and vanilla extract. Stir well and let it simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- 6. Add the powdered sugar and cinnamon powder to the saucepan. Mix thoroughly and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- 7. Transfer the chestnuts and the sauce to serving bowls. Garnish with chopped almonds and pistachios for added crunch and flavor.
- 8. Serve the roasted chestnuts warm as a delightful dessert, perfect for enjoying with family or friends.
