Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) Marzipan homemade or store-bought
- 8 oz (226 g) Dark chocolate
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- ½ cup (120 ml) Whipping cream
- 2 tsp Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Marzipan layer: Knead the marzipan lightly until pliable. Evenly press the marzipan into a parchment-lined 8 x 8 square pan, pressing with the back of a spoon to make an even base. Place in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Chocolate ganache top: Add the chocolate, butter, and cream to a microwave-safe bowl. Melt until completely dissolved in a microwave or double boiler. Add vanilla and stir until smooth. Pour over the Marzipan layer and spread evenly.
- Chill: Cover with plastic again and let set in the fridge for at least 4 to 5 hours or overnight.
- Cut squares: When completely set lift the parchment paper and take the whole block out of the pan. Divide and cut into squares.
- Serve: Cut into squares. Place on a serving platter and decorate with almond slices.
