    Chopping chocolate. Heat cream with coconut oil. Remove from the heat and let the chocolate melt in it. Roast almonds and hazelnuts in a pan without fat. Take out and let cool down. Coarsely chop almonds and nuts. Place a cake ring around the short pastry base. Spread about half of the chocolate cream on the base, leaving a rim of about 1 cm wide. Sprinkle about 1/3 of the nut mixture on top and chill for about 30 minutes.

    Soak gelatine in cold water. Mix cream cheese, 50 g sugar and peanut cream with the whisk of the hand mixer. Beat the egg whites until very stiff, then add 75 g sugar. Squeeze the gelatine well, dissolve carefully. Stir a little cream into the gelatine. Then stir everything into the remaining cream, fold in the egg white. Spread the cream on the base and smooth it down. Chill for about 30 minutes.
