Directions

  1. 1

    Knead flour, 100 g sugar, vanillin sugar, salt, 125 g cold fat in flakes and egg yolk to a shortcrust pastry. Cover and chill for about 1/2 hour. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface and roll out circles of about 5 cm Ø. Place on a baking tray covered with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for 6-7 minutes. In the meantime, heat the remaining fat and sugar. When the sugar has melted, add cream, peanuts and finely chopped apricots and let everything boil for about 3 minutes.

    Place the mixture with 2 teaspoons on the pre-baked cookies. Bake at the same temperature for another 15 minutes. Let it cool down. Melt the chocolate coating in a hot water bath. Dip the bottom side of the cookies into the chocolate coating and let it dry on a cake rack. Results in approx. 40 biscuits
