CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT SANDWICH COOKIES

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.

HAZELNUT-ESPRESSO SANDWICH COOKIES



Hazelnut-Espresso Sandwich Cookies image

From the pages of Taste of Home, submitted by Cindy Beberman, these are a wonderfully crisp little cookie with a rich filling sure to please if you're a coffee/hazelnut/chocolate lover! I easily halved the batch and got 30 cookies! To save time, I made the filling before the cookies because it does take awhile to set up and saves time in the long run! *I've made these again since first posting and used Land O Lakes fat free half and half in place of the whipping cream to cut some of the fat/calories/cholesterol a bit and it works just as well without compromising the taste!

Time 2h40m

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
4 teaspoons instant espresso granules
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup finely ground hazelnuts
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Steps:

  • In large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Beat in the egg, yolk, espresso granules and vanilla.
  • Combine flour, salt and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture mixing well. Stir in hazelnuts.
  • Divide dough into thirds; flatten each portion into a circle. Wrap each in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 1 hour or until easy to handle.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut with a floured 1 1/2 inch cookie cutter; place 1/2 inch apart on ungreased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Bake at 375* for 6-8 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
  • FOR FILLING: in small saucepan, bring cream to boil. Remove from heat; stir in milk chocolate chips and 3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips until melted. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for 1 1/2 hours or until filling reaches spreading consistency, stirring occasionally.
  • Spread filling over the bottom of half of the cookies; top with remaining cookies. Melt remaining semisweet chocolate chips; drizzle over cookies.
  • Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cookies to come together more easily.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. They should be slightly soft in the center and golden brown around the edges.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting and making the cookies messy.

Conclusion:

Hazelnut sandwich cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their nutty flavor and chocolatey filling, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
