Ingredients:
- 75 g red glacé cherries
- 50 ml hot milk
- 200 g sugar
- Approx. 8-10 g vanilla sugar
- 1 tbsp rum
- 30 g butter or margarine
- 150 g flaked almonds
- 75 ml whipping cream
- 2 tsp instant espresso powder (alternatively: 2 tsp instant coffee powder)
- 2 tbsp flour
- HOCH baking wafers (diameter 4-5 cm)
Preparation:
- Chop the glacé cherries into small pieces and mix in a bowl with all the remaining ingredients except for the flour.
- Bring the contents to the boil and simmer on a medium heat for approx. 8 minutes. Finally, fold in the sieved flour.
- Spread the HOCH baking wafers out on a baking tray, leaving plenty of space between, and using two teaspoons add a small portion of the mixture to each wafer.
- Place the florentines in a preheated oven. After baking, make sure the florentines are moulded firmly together and set aside to cool.
Tip:
If you use cornflour instead of flour, the biscuits will not run so much.
