Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 125 g butter, cold, cut into cubes
  • 200 g flour
  • 100 g hazelnuts, ground
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • n. B. Hazelnuts, chopped
  • e.g. chocolate, chopped
  • Flour for the work surface

Instructions

Working time approx. 50 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 50 minutes

Knead the egg yolks, powdered sugar, ground nuts, flour, and diced butter into a smooth dough, divide them in half, and knead one half with the cocoa powder. Wrap both doughs in foil and chill for about 30 minutes. Roll the dough out separately on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 3 mm thick. Brush one rectangle with egg white and place the other on top. Cut in half and roll up. Wrap both rolls separately in foil and chill again (about 30 minutes). Brush both rolls with the remaining egg white, roll one in the chopped nuts, and the other in the chocolate. Cut into 1 cm thick slices, place on a baking sheet, and bake in a preheated oven at 220 °C for 10-12 minutes on the middle rack.
