nutty and slightly sour

Using a mixer, mix the egg yolks, cream cheese, butter, sugar, and vanilla sugar until well blended. Combine the ground almonds, ground hazelnuts, flour, baking powder, lemon zest, and oats and add to the egg yolk mixture. Mix everything thoroughly. Drop small spoonfuls onto a baking sheet with a teaspoon, leaving some space between each cookie, as they will spread slightly during baking. Bake at 160°C (convection oven) for about 12 minutes, until the cookies are nicely browned. The lemon and cream cheese give the cookies a slightly tart flavor and they are nice and soft, but the oats and nuts add a bit of crunch.
