Time 55m

Yield 5 dozen cookie

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup hazelnuts or filberts, toasted
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cover two baking sheets with parchment paper. A plain baking sheet need not be greased.
  • Put the nuts into the food processor and grind them until very fine. In a large bowl, cream the butter, sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer until light. Add the ground nuts and flour. Mix until smooth. Put the dough into a cookie press with a star or ridged tip and press into long, narrow strips. Cut into 4-inch pieces. Shape the strips into rings and place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, just until lightly browned. Slide baked cookies on the parchment off the baking sheet onto the countertop to cool, or place onto a wire rack to cool.
  • While the cookies bake, combine the chocolate chips and cream in a small glass bowl. Microwave at high power 1 minute at a time, or place over simmering water, stirring until melted. Dip cooled cookies in the chocolate so that ends are coated by 1/2 inch. Place on the parchment or on waxed paper to harden.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

The cookies were a little dry. I think I should have added more butter.

I had a hard time getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out too much in the oven.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think they would be perfect for someone who likes really sweet cookies.

I'm not a big fan of hazelnuts, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The hazelnut flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the cookie.
