Preparation time: 40 -50 minutes Yield: makes 20 - 30 cookies
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cover two cookie sheets with wax paper.
2. Place the hazelnuts and the sugar in a food processor or blender.
Pulse/chop until the mixture is ground into a paste. Pour it into a mixing
bowl.
3. Add the remaining ingredients except confectioners sugar and mix
together well. The mixture should form a stiff paste.
4. Drop teaspoonsful of the nut batter onto the wax paper, leaving a 2-inch
space between the cookies.
5. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove cookies from the oven
and cool completely before attempting to remove them from the paper.
Separate slowly and carefully. Sprinkle the cookies with confectioners
sugar before serving. Stored in tightly cloised tins, the cookies keep well
for weeks.
