Instructions

  1. Melt butter, sugar and cocoa in a double boiler. Add the egg. Stir until it boils and thickens. Remove from the hob and stir in the waffle or rusk crumbs, desiccated coconut and almonds. Press the mixture into an ungreased pan (e.g. a pan for brownies).
  2. Mix the butter, cream, custard powder and powdered sugar together well, then beat until it becomes firm. Then distribute the mixture on the floor and smooth it out with a knife.
  3. Now melt the chocolate and butter over low heat. As soon as it has cooled down a bit, you pour it over the second layer and put the whole thing in the refrigerator until the top layer has set nicely. Then cut the mass into rectangles with a knife. You have to be careful that the chocolate layer is not too hard. If necessary, wait a few minutes after taking the mass out of the refrigerator before cutting.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
