Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 40 g Pistachio kernels
  • 200 g Marzipan raw mass
  • 75 g Icing sugar
  • 120 g Butter or margarine
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • 150 g Flour
  • 1 slightly heaped tablespoons of cocoa powder
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 50 g ground hazelnuts or almonds
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Finely grind the pistachios. Knead with the marzipan, divide into five parts and form into rolls of 30 cm each. Sieve the icing sugar into a mixing bowl, add the fat and whisk with the whisk of the hand mixer until foamy. Stir in egg yolk. Sift flour and cocoa over it.

  2. 2

    Add salt and nuts and knead to a smooth dough with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Roll out the chocolate-nut dough between 2 layers of cling film to a rectangle (approx. 40 x 30 cm). Cut into strips (8 x 30 cm). Place one marzipan roll each on a strip of dough and roll up. Chill for at least 30 minutes. Form the rolls into triangular sticks, e.g. with two rulers. Cut them into pieces about 1 1/2 cm wide and place them on three baking trays lined with baking paper. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for 10-12 minutes.
