    Heat the cream and remove from the heat. Cut the nut nougat into pieces and melt in the hot cream while stirring. Pour into a mixing bowl, let it cool down and refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Roast chopped hazelnuts in a pan without fat, take out immediately and let cool down. Whip the cooled nougat cream mixture with the whisk of the hand mixer for about 1 minute until creamy.

    Stir in roasted hazelnuts. Pour the mixture into a piping bag with perforated spout (medium size, must fit into the opening of the hollow mould!). Pour the nougat-nut truffle cream into the praline hollow moulds and refrigerate for approx. 1 hour. Halve the pistachio kernels. Melt the chocolate coating and coconut oil coarsely chopped on a warm water bath. Leave to cool a little. Dip balls upside down into the chocolate coating and place them on a chocolate rack or a baking tray lined with baking paper. Immediately sprinkle each ball differently with a whole hazelnut or almond, halved pistachios or pine nuts and/or ground pistachios. Allow to dry.
