CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT SANDWICH COOKIES



Chocolate-Hazelnut Sandwich Cookies image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield About 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup blanched hazelnuts
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon hazelnut liqueur
Red coarse sugar, for decorating
1/2 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the hazelnuts on a small baking sheet and bake until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Let cool. Transfer the hazelnuts to a resealable plastic bag and finely crush with a rolling pin.
  • Whisk the crushed hazelnuts with the flour, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg, then the milk, then the hazelnut liqueur, beating well after each addition. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined (the consistency will be more like a thick batter than a cookie dough).
  • Transfer the dough to a large resealable plastic bag. Cut a 1/2-inch opening at one corner. Pipe 1-inch mounds about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared pans. Tap each pan on the counter a few times to flatten the mounds slightly. Sprinkle half of the mounds with coarse sugar (these will be the tops).
  • Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are flattened and the edges are golden, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes on the pans, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Sandwich the chocolate-hazelnut spread between the cookies.

Yield Makes 36 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 large egg
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled
1 cup toasted skinned hazelnuts, very finely chopped

Steps:

  • Cookies: In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together butter and egg. Add brown sugar, and whisk to combine. Gradually add to flour mixture and stir with a spatula until liquid is absorbed. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap.
  • Divide dough into thirds; roll out each portion 1/16-inch thick on a nonstick baking mat, topped with plastic wrap. Stack on a baking sheet, and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut dough into rounds; transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets. Reroll scraps once and cut more rounds, to make a total of 72 cookies. (If dough becomes soft, freeze until firm.) Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until firm and fragrant, 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks and let cool completely.
  • Filling: In a large bowl, beat butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and salt, starting on low speed, then increasing to high for 2 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Stir in melted chocolate to combine.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons filling each on half of cookies, then sandwich with remaining cookies. Roll edges in chopped hazelnuts to adhere. Chill overnight before serving. (Assembled cookies can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 2 days.)

Provided by JasLak

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Seafood Main Dish Recipes     Halibut

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound red potatoes, cut into chunks
5 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup hazelnuts
¼ cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 halibut fillets
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
5 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons vegetable broth

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes into a large pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, mash the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a smooth paste. Drain potatoes, then mash together with the garlic paste, butter, and pepper. Keep warm.
  • Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  • While the potatoes are cooking, Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Pulse the hazelnuts and bread crumbs in a food processor until finely ground, but not ground into a paste. Pour onto a shallow dish. Season the halibut fillets on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently press one side of the halibut fillets into the nut mixture, and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place the halibut fillets nut-side-up into the skillet; cook until the halibut begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the fillets over, and place into the preheated oven. Bake, nut-side-down until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes.
  • Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it turns nut brown. Stir in the vegetable broth, and bring to a simmer.
  • To serve, mound the potatoes onto the center of each dinner plate. Place a halibut fillet on top of the mashed potatoes nut-side-up, then drizzle with the browned butter sauce.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for rolling
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup hazelnuts, toasted and skinned
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
3/4 cup melted semisweet chocolate or raspberry or apricot jam, for filling

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In a food processor, pulse hazelnuts with 1/4 cup flour mixture until very finely ground. Add remaining flour mixture and process to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add egg yolks and vanilla and pulse until dough just comes together. Form dough into 2 disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Working with 1 disk at a time, roll out dough between floured parchment paper to 1/8-inch thickness. Stack dough in parchment on a baking sheet; refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes. With a lightly floured 2 1/2-inch fluted round cutter, cut out dough. (If dough becomes too soft, refrigerate a few minutes; reroll scraps, if desired.) Place cookies, 1 inch apart, on two parchment-lined baking sheets. With a 1-inch cutter, cut out dough in centers of half the cookies. Bake until cookies just begin to brown at edges, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. If desired, bake small cutouts separately, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer cookies to wire racks and let cool completely.

PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT COOKIE SANDWICHES RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Peanut Butter Chocolate-Hazelnut Cookie Sandwiches Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by dcarriger56

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup granulated sugar plus more for flattening
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 egg
1 1/4 cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread

Steps:

  • Blend sugars, peanut butter, butter and egg in an electric mixer. Stir in remaining ingredients until well incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate about 1 hour. Heat oven to 375°F. Shape dough into 1-1/4 inch balls. Place about 3 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten in a crisscross pattern with a fork that has been dipped in sugar. Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown, rotating cookie sheet after 5 minutes. Cool 5 minutes on cookie sheet then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes. When cookies are cool, flip over and spread half of the cookie bottoms with about a tablespoon of chocolate-hazelnut spread each. Top with a similar size cookie. Makes 15.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the sandwiches will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Temper the chocolate. Tempering is a process of heating and cooling the chocolate in a specific way. This makes the chocolate smooth and shiny, and it also helps it to set properly.
  • Use fresh hazelnuts. Fresh hazelnuts will have a better flavor and texture than stale hazelnuts. If you can't find fresh hazelnuts, you can use roasted hazelnuts, but be sure to toast them yourself so that they're fresh.
  • Don't over-mix the dough. Over-mixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Over-baking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.

Conclusion:

Hazelnut crusted chocolate sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for a party or a special occasion, or just for a snack. With a few simple tips, you can make hazelnut crusted chocolate sandwiches that are sure to impress your friends and family.
