Ingredients

Servings: 36
  • 3 TABLESPOONS chopped almonds
  • 200 g Marzipan raw mass
  • 1/4 the praline base
  • 3 TABLESPOONS brown rum
  • 300 g Dark chocolate coating
  • 25 g Coconut oil
  • 2 TABLESPOONS crushed almonds
  • 75 g Sugar
  • 50 g white couverture
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Disposable piping bag

Directions

  1. 1

    Roast the almonds in a pan without fat until golden brown. Take out and let it cool down. Knead the marzipan with the almonds. Roll out rectangularly (approx. 15 x 15 cm) on a work surface dusted with icing sugar. Line a rectangular form (15 x 15 cm) with foil. (Alternatively a round form; 18 cm Ø, then of course roll out marzipan round). Place a marzipan plate inside. Mix the basic mixture with rum.

  2. 2

    Pour onto the marzipan. Chill for 4-5 hours. Chop dark chocolate and melt over a warm water bath. Remove the praline plate from the mould. Cut into cubes (2.5 cm). Dip the pralines with a praline fork into the couverture, let them drip off and put them on a grid. Allow to dry. Mix almonds and sugar. Spread thinly on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven (electric oven: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 6-10 minutes until golden brown and the sugar has caramelised. Remove and let cool down briefly. Cut out small circles with a perforated spout (12 mm Ø). Leave to cool.
