📝 Ingredients

For the hazelnut filling:

🔺 200 g roasted, chopped hazelnuts  
🔺 5 g cocoa  
🔺 30 g brown sugar  
🔺 1 egg white  

For the dough:

🔺 100 g soft butter  
🔺 1 tsp vanilla sugar  
🔺 1 pinch of salt  
🔺 60 g icing sugar  
🔺 1 egg  
🔺 20 g vegetable oil  
🔺 20 g cornflour  
🔺 240 g flour  
🔺 1 tsp baking powder  

For decoration:

🔺 60 g melted chocolate  
🔺 Almond flakes  

👩🍳 Preparation

First, combine the chopped hazelnuts with cocoa, brown sugar, and egg white. The filling should have a firm, mouldable consistency.

For the dough, cream the soft butter with vanilla sugar, salt, and icing sugar. Then incorporate the egg, vegetable oil, and cornflour.

Mix the flour and baking powder and gradually add it to the dough. As different flours absorb liquid differently, the required amount may vary slightly.

Shape the cookies as shown in the video and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Bake at 180 °C for about 15 minutes. The cookies should remain light and only be slightly browned on the underside.

Allow to cool completely. Afterwards, dip the tips in melted chocolate and sprinkle with almond flakes.

☕ These delicate hazelnut cookies are perfect with coffee or tea and also make a beautiful addition to a festive cookie platter.
