An ephemeral nativity scene made of biscuits to be made together
All it takes is a little imagination, good products without single-use packaging and a little time to share with the family to create ephemeral art.
Ingredients
250g marzipan
3 chocolate bars of your choice
250g cane sugar or impalpable sugar
100g marshmallows
250g sesame and dark chocolate fingers
1 lemon
Material
1 plate
1 knife
1 lemon squeezer
1 rolling pin or glass bottle
1 mixer to reduce the cane sugar to powder
1 spoon
It's up to you, here is the recipe for the crèche in biscuits and chocolates
Set aside 40g of marzipan and roll the rest into a thin dough and place it in the dish
Squeeze the lemon
Grind the sugar to obtain a flour sugar
Cut 1 slab of chocolate in half and the other 2/3 - 1/3
Gradually mix the lemon juice with half the sugar until you have a paste (glue)
Assemble the walls by gluing them to the marzipan sheet with the lemon/sugar mixture:
1 large chocolate plate for the back wall
1/2 chocolate plate for the right wall and 1/2 for the left wall
2/3 of a slab of chocolate placed off-centre in the cot
Allow the "glue" to dry for a few minutes before sticking the fingers alternately on the chocolate walls
Stick a few marshmallows as a cushion in the centre of the nativity scene and others wherever you like
Shape the baby Jesus with the remaining marzipan: 1/3 for the head, 2/3 for the body and place it on the cushion
Cut the remaining fingers and plant them around the cot as a barrier
Sprinkle the remaining sugar on the cot
