These German Walnut Marzipan Chocolates have a whole lot of cozy flavors going on. Walnuts, pear schnapps, a hint of cardamom and marzipan – so good and with the perfect amount of sweetness! They are a traditional German Christmas treat recipe that I love to put on my “Bunte Teller”, my mixed cookie platter.
