Total Time: 45 mins Preparation Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 40
• 1 egg
• 450 ml sugar
• 50 ml powdered sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons gelatin, powder plus
• 150 ml boiling water
• smorgasran or thin wafers
• 300 g dark chocolate, plus
• 1 teaspoon oil or 1 teaspoon butter
• coconut, shredded or crushed nuts

Recipe

• 1 whip the egg with the two sugars just to blend.
• 2 stir the gelatin powder to dissolve in the boiling water.
• 3 while beating the egg/sugar mixture pour the gelatin in a thin stream into the mixture.
• 4 whip to a fluffy and firm meringue for 25-30 minutes.
• 5 take a glass or a cookie cutter and take out round bases from the wafers.
• 6 spoon the mixture onto the bases or use a piping bag for better looking treats.
• 7 put them in the refrigerator to dry out on the surface--can take 30 minutes to a couple of hours.
• 8 melt the chocolate in a big enough bowl so that you can get the balls in sidewise.
• 9 hold them by the base and dip the balls in the chocolate one side at a time.
• 10 do not dip the base because it will just get wet.
• 11 sprinkle the chocolate with coconut or crushed nuts and let stand to get the chocolate to harden.
• 12 store in a airtight container or in the refrigerator and they freeze really well.
