Ingredients

  • 1 spoon Oil, vegetable oil, canola

  • 1 spoon Butter, unsalted

  • 100 g Sugar, white

  • 100 g Nuts, almonds

  • 3 pieces Gelatin powder, unsweetened

  • 2 dl Sweet cream

  • 2 spoons Alcohol, Whisky

  • 1 handful Nuts, almonds

  • 2 dl Water

Steps

  1. Grease a deep baking dish with oil. Place a saucepan on the stove and melt the butter over moderate heat. Add sugar to the butter and stir continuously until it turns a light brown color. Then, add the ground almonds and lightly toast them.

  2. Pour the almond mixture into the baking dish and let it cool and set for at least half an hour. Meanwhile, soak the gelatin sheets in cold water to let them swell. Place a new saucepan on the stove and heat 2 tablespoons of cream and brandy, then remove the saucepan from the heat. Crumble the set almond butter with a spatula.

  3. Remove the gelatin from the water, squeeze it well, and dissolve it in the warm mixture of cream and brandy. Whip the remaining cream with an electric mixer until creamy and slowly fold in the almond mixture and the dissolved gelatin.

  4. Divide the almond cream into 4 glasses and refrigerate for at least two hours to let the cream set. Serve the set cream topped with toasted almond slices.
