Method
1.
For the filling: heat the QimiQ Classic with the cream and sugar and pour over the chopped chocolate.
2.
Allow to melt for 5 minutes and stir well until the mixture becomes smooth and shiny.
3.
Allow to cool to 15 °C and whisk until fluffy. The right temperature plays an important role: if it is too warm or too cold the mixture cannot be whipped.
4.
Pipe 3 cm sized dots onto a baking paper and freeze.
5.
Form balls with the frozen mixture and place back into the freezer.
6.
Coat in flour, egg and grated nuts and freeze again.
7.
For the batter: beat the egg white, sugar and salt until stiff.
8.
Mix the remaining ingredients together well. Fold in the egg white.
