DOMINOSTEINE (LAYERED GINGERBREADS)

Dominosteine (Layered Gingerbreads) image

From an old German cookbook. Layers of gingerbread, black currant jelly, optional marchpane (almond paste) and gingerbread, all cut into small squares and glazed with dark chocolate. Have not tried it so far because I usually buy them (with marchpane). If you make them, let me know how it worked. - The measurement for cloves and cardamom is actually 1 tip of a knife each. I guessed the amount of almond paste needed as well as the prep time. Posted at a forum request.

DOMINOSTEINE

Molly53 was kind enough to post this in the German food forum. I have not made these, although I have tasted the commercial product at an Oktoberfest. Yum and more yum. If this recipe is half as good, it will be great! The recipe called for 7 grams of potash. I substituted 1 tsp. of baking powder, but I have no idea if this is the correct amount or not. Prep time is a guesstimate.

Time 50m

Yield 1 cooksheetfull

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

625 g all-purpose flour
160 g butter
160 g sugar
160 g honey
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon cocoa
125 g coarsely ground almonds
125 g raisins
125 g candied lemon peel, chopped
250 g marmalade (your choice of flavors) or 250 g jam (your choice of flavors)
dipping chocolate (semisweet or bittersweet)

Steps:

Using all of the ingredients down to the cocoa, knead all the ingredients together and then remove 1/3 of the dough to use as a cover. Roll out the other 2/3 of the dough onto a well-greased cookie sheet.
Make the filling by combining the almonds, raisins, lemon peel and jam.
Spread the filling onto the dough on the cookie sheet.
Roll out the remaining 1/3 of dough and cover the ingredients on the cooking sheet. Bake in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.
When done, remove from oven. While still very warm, cut into squares. When cooled decorate with dipping chocolate. This can either be by dipping half of the square into the softened chocolate or by dripping the chocolate over the squares in a zig-zag pattern.
