Separate the eggs, melt the butter, and preheat the oven to 160 °C.
Now knead the butter, sugar, egg yolks, whipped cream, and flour in a bowl into a smooth dough.
Roll out the dough on a floured work surface and place it on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
For the topping, beat the egg whites until stiff.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, the cinnamon, and the nutmeg.
Finally fold in the almonds.
Spread this mixture evenly over the dough and smooth it out.

Chop the candied orange peel finely and distribute it nicely with the pistachios over the beaten egg-white mixture.
