Nougatine with Almond Cream
Nougatine au Crème d'Amandes
Line a well-oiled charlotte mould with nougat paste (see recipe) about a quarter-inch thick, pressing the paste well inside with an oiled lemon. When somewhat cool remove the nougat from the tin, take some more of the paste, roll it out on a well-oiled slab, and work it into the form of a stick about the thickness of a finger; then whilst warm cut it into lengths of three to four inches and form them as near as possible to the shape shown in engraving; stick these pieces here and there on the outside of the nougat case, using boiled sugar (see recipe) for the purpose; put it aside till quite cold, then mask it over with Vienna chocolate icing (see recipe), and sprinkle it here and there with baked chopped almonds. Place the case on a dish on a paper and fill up
