autumn is here, and what could be better than enjoying some warm, sweet chestnuts? 🍂✨ if you don’t have time to roast them over an open fire, the microwave is your new best friend! 🍠 microwave chestnuts are super easy and fast to make. first, use a sharp knife to cut an "x" on the flat side of each chestnut. this helps them release steam while cooking. 🗡️ then, place the chestnuts on a microwave-safe plate, cut-side up. sprinkle a little water over the plate to keep them moist. ⚡ finally, microwave on high for about 2-3 minutes per batch. let them cool slightly before peeling and enjoy the deliciousness! 🎉 whether you’re reading a book or watching your favorite show, these microwaved chestnuts will add a touch of autumn magic to your day! 🌟
