Pumpkin seed trees with apple-honey-filling
description & times
Delicate biscuits with a filling of baked apple-jam mixed with honey. Pumpkin seeds are worked into the shortcrust pastry; they provide taste and bite. The dough is quite soft, so it should be refrigerated and always processed in small portions. These christmas trees are decorated with chocolate icing and sugar motives.
Rolling out the dough
Carefully roll out the dough between two layers of cling film five millimeters thick. The film prevents the dough from too much flour being incorporated.
Cutting out trees
Preheat the oven to 180 ° C convection. Cut the trees out of the dough and place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper.
Stuffing the trees
Let the biscuits for ten minutes. Once in the oven, they should be observed so they won't get burnt. Take the biscuits out of the oven. Mix the baked apple jam with honey. Cover one biscuit with the filling, place a second one on top and carefully squeeze both halves together.
Heating up the couverture
Heat the two couvertures in a water bath. Dip the stems into the dark chocolate. Spray garlands with the bright couverture all over the trees. Decorate the cookies with sugar stars or sugar pearls.
Pumpkin seed trees with apple-honey-filling
Keep the pumpkin seed trees with apple-honey filling in a tight cookie jar in a cool place. They would stay fresh for four to six weeks if they won't get eaten up by the christmas mouse.
