flødeboller (recipe for cream tops.. or chocolate covered marshmallow)

I felt like experimenting with sweets at christmas time.. so i decided to make flødeboller.. and they turned out great. however i would love to se if i can get ideas to expand the recipe...

this is for about 32.
500 grams of marzipan (17.63 ounce or.. an entire roll)
about 400 grams granulated sugar (14 ounce)
150 grams pasteurized egg whites (5.29 ounce)
1.5 dl water (5.29 ounce)
about 250 grams of chocolate (9 ounces)

next time i make them i'll add vanilla to some of them.. that would be a nice touch.. this time i added som strawberry flavor to some of them, it where a success..

the way i made them:
 first i cut the marzipan in slices, about as thick as half a centimeter (0.2 inches) and baked them at 180 degrees celsius (356 degrees fahrenheit) until the start to brown a little bit (after about 8 min), a bit more than i did (the picture).



then i added the water and sugar, and heated until it boils, when it boils watch the pan. let it simmer a little bit so that some of the water vaporizes. don't stir to rough and remove from heat when it starts to crystalize on the sites and doesn't bubble anymore.



when sugar is of the heat, start beating the egg whites. when they are stiff, slowly poor in the syrup. keep mixing about 10-15 min after all the syrup is in, because it needs to cool down while mixing in the bowl. then add flavors.
when the marshmallow stuff has rested for a little while, put it in a bag and cut a little hole. ad the "cream" to the marzipan slices made earlier.




let the flødeboller rest for a while so the dry a little on the out site. then either dip them i melted chocolate or paint it on the flødeboller.



so now that you have 32 delicious cream tops you need to get a calorie approximation... if fragile.. look away...

1 flødebolle = 168.12 calories

in total 32 flødeboller/ cream tops:
total proteins            94.02 g = 376.2 calories
total carbohydrates 692.28 g = 2769.12 calories
total fat                   248.27 g = 2234.43 calories
