Yield Makes 18

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped, pod reserved for another use
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup brown-rice flour
3 ounces blanched hazelnuts, finely ground (1 cup)

I'm allergic to hazelnuts, so I used almond flour instead. The cookies turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
