Place the candied peel with 1 tbsp flour in a blender and chop. Mix the nuts with the remaining flour and lebkuchen spice.

Beat the egg with the rum, vanilla sugar, vanilla essence and brown sugar. Thoroughly mix in the candied fruit and the nuts with a dough scraper. The dough should be easy to mould; the quantity of nuts may be varied.
