Preparation procedure

  • Preparation of the base dough: Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Place two torte wafers on a baking sheet.
  • Preparation of the nut base: Whisk the egg whites with the powdered sugar into stiff peaks. Fold in the ground nuts and breadcrumbs. Spread this mixture evenly onto the wafers. Bake at 180 °C for about 20 minutes or until the edges turn golden.
  • Preparation of the cream: Whip the butter with the powdered sugar until fluffy. From the milk, egg yolks, pudding powder and vanilla sugar, cook a thick custard. Let it cool, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming. Then combine the custard with the whipped butter and mix thoroughly.
  • Assembling the krémeš: Spread the cream onto the baked wafer and nut base. Decorate with grated dark chocolate.
  • Chilling: Let the krémeš set in a cool place so it can be sliced nicely.
