”VACUUM CLEANERS”
Dammsugare
¼ cup cocoa
1/3 cup sweet arrack punsch
some potato starch
1 lb marzipan, the traditional is green
but you can also use yellow or pink - I might eat a
pink vacuum cleaner, but no way I’ll eat a blue one!)
Mix the cookies in a food processor to a nice crumble. Add fat, cocoa and punsch and mix to a thick batter. Fill it in a piping bag.

Dammsugare
Another Swedish coffee shop favourite – and
also this one with a taste of sweet arrack punsch. They are said to be easy to
make if you have cookies that you can crumble. Here they have used a mix of oat
biscuits and chocolate cookies. I’ve never made them myself for some reason,
but I do like to have them when I’m out … Oh, I should say that the name is
because of their shape, they look a bit like an old-fashioned vacuum cleaner.
Approx 20 vacuum cleaners
1 lb crumbled cookies of
your choice
5 oz butter or margarine,
room-tempered¼ cup cocoa
1/3 cup sweet arrack punsch
some potato starch
1 lb marzipan, the traditional is green
but you can also use yellow or pink - I might eat a
pink vacuum cleaner, but no way I’ll eat a blue one!)
Decoration:
7 oz dark chocolateMix the cookies in a food processor to a nice crumble. Add fat, cocoa and punsch and mix to a thick batter. Fill it in a piping bag.
Colour the marzipan with the colour
of your choice. Dust some potato starch over your work surface and roll the
marzipan out to a rectangle, approx 14 x 18 inches and very, very
thin (2 millimeters). Cut in 3 long stripes, approx 4 inches wide. Pipe
the filling in the middle of the stripes and fold the marzipan around the
filling. Place the rolls “seamside down”. Cut the rolls in pieces, about 2½ inches long and leave in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Melt the chocolate over a hot
waterbath and dip both ends of the vacuum cleaners in it. Put on a baking paper
and leave in the fridge to set.
Enjoy!
