Ingredients
  • 100g of peeled almonds
  • 100g of peeled hazelnuts
  • 30g of cocoa powder
  • 15g of cinnamon
  • 50g of flour
  • 300g of mixed candied citrus peel
  • 125g of icing sugar (or confectionery sugar)
  • 125g of honey

Directions
  1. Lightly roast almonds and hazelnuts. Put almonds, hazelnuts, cocoa powder, cinnamon, flour and mixed candied citrus peel in a bowl. Put sugar and honey in a pot and let the mix melt on a low heat, always stirring. When, if immersing two wet fingers in the mix and then immediately in cold water, a small sphere will form, the mix is ready. Put the rest of the ingredients in the pot and stir carefully. Put the mix into a greased and flour-dusted cake tin. Bake at low heat (120-150 C) for half an hour.
