Decoration:

You need: 1-2 baking trays, cake rack, baking paper

For approx. 20 pieces/half a baking tray. Take double the amount for a whole baking tray.

Preparation of the base:

Knead all the ingredients into a dough. If it is still a little sticky, knead in some more flour and roll out on a greased baking tray.

Spread a thin layer of jam on top.

Preparation of the nut mixture:

Preheat the oven to 175-200 degrees fan.

Roast the nuts and almonds in a pan without fat until fragrant. Then leave to cool, grind finely and place in a bowl. Melt the butter and mix well with the other ingredients.

Now spread the nut mixture evenly over the pastry base and smooth out.

The nut corners can now be placed in the oven for 20-30 minutes.

After 20 minutes, check that the pastry is not getting too dark, cover with baking paper if necessary and finish baking.

Decoration:

Leave to cool well on a cake rack. Now finely chop the chocolate coating and melt in a bain-marie, stir in the coconut oil and dip the tips or edges of your nut corners in and leave to harden.

Store in a well-sealed tin.
