Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 200 g firm nut nougat mass
  • 1 package (400 g) Marzipan blanket, ready rolled out
  • 40 g Pistachio kernels
  • 1 TABLESPOON Orange liqueur, for example Cointreau
  • 1 TABLESPOON chopped almonds
  • 200 g Dark chocolate coating
  • 7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar
  • baking paper
  • 45 white chocolate cuffs

Directions

  1. 1

    Place the nougat in its shell in a warm water bath (max. 50 °C) and melt until the contents are thick. Roll off the marzipan cover and cut into a rectangle (approx. 20x30 cm). Then cut the rectangle into 3 approx. 10 cm wide strips. Grind the pistachios finely and knead well with the marzipan sections and Cointreau. Shape the pistachio marzipan into a roll of approx. 60 cm and cut into three pieces of approx. 20 cm.

  2. 2

    Spread the nougat on the marzipan strips, leaving the edges slightly free. Leave to stand for about 30 minutes so that the nougat mass can get a little tighter (do not refrigerate). Place the pistachio marzipan rolls on the middle of the strips and roll them up. Press the edges well and put the rolls in a cool place for about 1 hour. In the meantime, roast the almonds in a pan without fat and let them cool down. Coarsely chop the chocolate coating and melt it on a hot water bath. Place the rolls on a cake rack and cover with couverture. Drain a little and place on a piece of baking paper. Sprinkle 1 roll with almonds. Refrigerate the rolls again for about 1 hour and cut each roll into 13-15 corners.

  3. 3

    Coarsely chop the chocolate coating and melt it on a hot water bath. Place the rolls on a cake rack and cover with couverture. Drain a little and place on a piece of baking paper. Sprinkle 1 roll with almonds. Refrigerate the rolls again for about 1 hour and cut each roll into 13-15 corners. Put them in chocolate cuffs. Results in 39-45 pieces
