Hello and welcome back to my 12 days of Christmas blogs. Yesterday I shared a recipe for traditional Basler Brunsli, and, as promised, today I will tell you how you can give those old favourites a traditional twist with my white chocolate Basler Brunsli.

For approximately 40 White Basler Brunsli you will neeed:

250g ground almonds

2. Grate the white chocolate and combine to the dry mixture(1)

3. Beat the egg whites to a soft peak

4. Fold the egg whites(3) and the whiskey in to the dry mix

5. Mix using your hands until it forms a dough. be carefull not to knead too long

6. Wrap the dough in cling film and place in the fridge for 1 hour

7. Roll out the dough on a flat surface covered in sugar, approximately 10mm thick.

8. Cut out the shapes and place them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper

9. Now let them rest at room temperature, in a dry place, for at least 6 hours or overnight
