Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 8 madeleines

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, such as Nutella
8 madeleines
1 tablespoon chopped roasted, skinned hazelnuts

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate chips in a medium bowl set over a double-boiler, stirring with a rubber spatula, until almost entirely melted, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove the bowl from the heat and continue to stir until the chocolate is completely melted, another 30 seconds. Stir in the hazelnut spread. Let cool slightly.
  • Preheat the broiler to high.
  • If the madeleines have a side with a bump, trim the bump to create a flat surface. Cut each madeleine in half horizontally and place cut-side up on a baking sheet. Broil until toasted and brown, 3 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Spread a heaping teaspoon of the chocolate mixture evenly over the bottom half of a madeleine; sprinkle with hazelnuts. Place the top half on the hazelnuts and press gently. Dip the assembled madeleine halfway in the chocolate mixture, then place on a tray. Continue with the rest of the madeleines. Refrigerate until completely cool and the chocolate has hardened slightly, 30 minutes.
  • Serve alongside Bourbon Milk (see below) if desired.

MADELEINE COOKIES

Classic madeleines -- those perfectly delicate shell-shaped cookies -- are flavored with lemon or orange zest, but variations include chocolate, cocoa, almond paste, or nuts. Baked in scallop-shaped molds, these cookies are tender with a tight-grained interior and a delicate crust.

Yield Makes about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup blanched hazelnuts
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place hazelnuts on a baking sheet and toast until golden and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Pulse in a food processor until just finely ground (do not grind into a paste).
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add flour, ground hazelnuts, and salt; beat until dough forms. If needed, drizzle in 1 to 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to help form a dough. Dough can be wrapped well in plastic and refrigerated up to 1 day or frozen up to 3 months (thaw in refrigerator before using).
  • Roll dough into 1-inch balls and transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Press balls with tines of fork to flatten. Bake until edges are golden, rotating sheets halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack and let cookies cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

HAZELNUT COOKIES

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield About 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces unskinned lightly toasted hazelnuts
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place the hazelnuts in a food processor and grind coarsely. Reserve 1/4 cup of the hazelnuts. Grind the remaining nuts fine and add the oil. Blend the mixture thoroughly into a hazelnut butter. Set aside.
  • Cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy (this can be done in the washed food processor or with an electric mixer in a bowl). Beat in the hazelnut butter, the egg and the vanilla. Mix thoroughly.
  • Sift the flour and add with the baking soda and the salt. Mix thoroughly and add the reserved hazelnuts. Using a teaspoon, form the dough into balls and arrange them 2 inches apart on baking sheets that have been greased or lined with parchment paper. Using the prongs of a fork that have been dipped into flour to prevent sticking, flatten the balls into 1 1/2 inch rounds (Tip: If you want a clearly visible criss-cross design on the cookies, chill dough for 30 minutes before doing so).
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-to-9 minutes or until the cookies are golden. Cool on racks. The cookies will keep for about a week in a sealed jar.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cookies, making them light and tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cookies from curdling.
  • Fold in the flour, hazelnuts, and baking powder. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to firm up the dough and make it easier to shape.
  • Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature. This will help to prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them to set and develop their full flavor.
