Ingredients
  

Für die Masse
  • 250 g butter melted
  • 500 g wholemeal biscuits
  • 50 g coconut flakes
  • 130 g ground almonds
  • 100 g candied ginger
  • 100 g roasted pistachios unsalted
  • 2-3 tbsp. ground ginger
  • 1 tube condensed milk 170 g
For the glaze
  • 400 g icing sugar
  • 80 g butter at room temperature
  • 70 g curd cheese
  • 3 table spoons vanilla paste
  • 2-3 cm fresh ginger peeled
  • 1 lemon the juice
  • 25 g pistachios finely chopped

Equipment

  • Baking tray with high sides

Method
 

  1. Grind the wholemeal biscuits into as fine a crumb as possible. This can be done either in a blender or by placing them in a plastic bag, sealing it and then crushing them with a rolling pin.
  2. Chop the pistachios finely and cut the candied ginger into as small pieces as possible.
  3. Mix all the ingredients for the mixture well.
    Line a baking tray with high sides with baking paper. Pour in the mixture and smooth it out.
  4. For the glaze, grate the fresh ginger.
    Mix together the icing sugar, softened butter, curd cheese, vanilla paste and ginger, then add the lemon juice. Caution: you may need to use a little less lemon juice. The glaze should be easy to spread but not too thin.
  5. Spread the glaze over the mixture on the baking tray. Sprinkle with finely chopped pistachios. Chill until the glaze has set, then cut into rectangles or cubes.

Notes

Due to the curd cheese and butter it contains, the glaze never really hardens at room temperature, but remains soft.
