Zubereitung
- Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) (top/bottom heat) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 75 g Walnuts, 75 g HazelnutsAdd the walnuts and hazelnuts to the mixing bowl and chop for 5 sec. / speed 5. Transfer the nuts to a separate bowl. No need to wash the mixing bowl!
- 150 g White chocolateNext, break the white chocolate into pieces, add it to the mixing bowl, and chop for 5 sec. / speed 7.
- 130 g ButterAdd the butter, melt the mixture for 3 min. / 50°C (120°F) / speed 2, and then pour it into the bowl with the nuts. Again, no need to wash the mixing bowl.
- 100 g Sugar, 1 packet Vanilla sugar, 1 pinch Salt, 2 EggsNow, add the sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, and eggs to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together for 1 min. / speed 5.
- 130 g Flour, 2 tsp Speculoos spice blendAdd the flour and speculoos spice blend, and mix it in for 10 sec. / speed 5.
- 75 g Walnuts, 75 g Hazelnuts, 130 g Butter, 150 g White chocolateFinally, add the nuts and the chocolate-butter mixture to the batter, and mix for 20 sec. / speed 3.
- Spread the batter evenly onto your prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes at 150°C (300°F) (top/bottom heat).
- Take the pan out of the oven and, while the bake is still warm, cut it into diamond shapes. To do this, first cut horizontal strips about 4 cm wide. Then, make diagonal cuts (about 5 cm apart) starting from the short side. The intersecting cuts will give you perfect little diamonds.
- Let the diamonds cool completely right on the baking sheet. In the meantime, give the mixing bowl a thorough wash.
- 100 g Dark chocolateAdd the dark chocolate pieces to the mixing bowl, chop for 10 sec. / speed 7, and then scrape down the sides with a spatula. Melt the chocolate for 3 min. / 55°C (130°F) / speed 2.
- einige NutsUse a pastry brush to spread the melted dark chocolate over the cooled speculoos bars. Chop up a handful of nuts and sprinkle them over the chocolate for the perfect finishing touch!
