Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 50 g sugar, crystalline
  • 40 g hazelnuts, ground or whole for grinding yourself, see instructions
  • 220 g wheat flour
  • 100 g cream

Instructions

Working time approx. 1 hour 10 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 13 minutes; Total time approx. 2 hours 23 minutes

Roast the hazelnuts, let them cool, and then grind them finely. Add the remaining dough ingredients, knead, and chill the dough for about 1 hour. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 4 mm and cut out small, bite-sized circles or rectangles. Bake the cookies at 180°C (top and bottom heat) for about 12-14 minutes, then let them cool. Heat the cream. Break the chocolate into pieces and melt it into the cream while stirring, then let them cool. Using a piping bag or a small spoon, place two dollops of chocolate cream on the cookies. Lightly press two cookies together at a time and chill. Place the filled cookies side by side on a wire rack or baking paper and decorate with thin lines of melted chocolate coating. Once the cookies have completely cooled, store them in an airtight container.
