  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 package (200 g) Marzipan raw mass
  • 50 g Icing sugar
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Rum
  • 100 g crushed almonds
  • 100 g chopped almonds
  • 30 g Sugar crystals
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Place the puff pastry slices next to each other on a floured work surface and let them thaw for about 10 minutes. In the meantime, separate 2 eggs. Put the egg white and 1 egg yolk aside separately. Mix marzipan, icing sugar, remaining whole eggs and egg yolks, rum, ground and chopped almonds to a smooth mixture.

  2. 2

    Beat the egg white until stiff and fold into the marzipan mixture. Moisten the puff pastry sheets with water, place them on top of each other and roll out into a square (40x40 cm). Spread the marzipan mixture evenly on top and roll everything up.

  3. 3

    Place the roll on a baking tray lined with baking paper and let it rest in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes. Whisk aside the egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of water, brush the roll with it and sprinkle with sugar crystals.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven (electric oven: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 45 minutes. Results in about 20 slices.
