Directions

1
Heat honey, sugar, vanillin sugar and fat in a pot until the sugar is dissolved. Let it cool down for about 10 minutes and put it into a mixing bowl. Add eggs, cream, gingerbread spice, flour, baking powder and hazelnuts. Knead to a smooth dough with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Put it on a greased, flour-dusted fat pan of the oven. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 20-25 minutes.

Remove and let cool for about 1 hour. Cut out approx. 8 stars with a star cutter (approx. 10 cm Ø). Coarsely chop the chocolate coating and coconut oil and melt on a hot water bath. Remove from the bain-marie and stir until cold. Dip the stars into the liquid couverture as desired. Decorate with pistachios and walnut halves and let dry
