Thank you

Spitzkuchen Honig mit Zucker, Salz und Öl erhitzen, abkühlen lassen, dann Ei, Kakao, Gewürze und das mit Backpulver gemischte Mehl einarbeiten, zuletzt die Mandeln in den Teig mengen. 1 Stunde kühl ruhen lassen, Teigrollen mit 3 cm Durchmesser formen, auf einem gefetteten Blech 20 - 30 Min. bei 175 bis 195 °C backen. Die erkalteten Rollen in Dreiecke schneiden, mit heißem Gelee überziehen. Über Nacht erkalten lassen und am nächsten Tag mit Kuvertüre überziehen. Schmeckt total lecker!

OK...NOW I know what you mean! There are two "gingerbread" recipes, the second looks more "spicy", and probably close to what you wanted?? Maybe you can shape that recipe into triangles and dip them in chocolate?? I think it's pretty close, let me know....
And, the fourth paragraph, from the beginning of the article, explains why (what you're talking about) is called "Spitzkutchen"...
Hope this helps!

Thank you all for your help and caring. I really appreciate the kindness and thought.

Thank you all for your help and kindness.
Hugs to you all
