Instructions
- With a stand mixer, mix the hazelnut flour, the all-purpose flour, the sugar, and the softened butter but be careful not to melt it. Mix until the dough is smooth and holds together nicely.
- Wrap it in plastic wrap and let it stand in the fridge for about one hour. When solid, it is easier to shape.
- Divide the dough into walnut-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Don’t make overly big cookies that won’t cook evenly in the oven. They will be raw and chewy inside but crispy outside. Good cookies are crunchy inside and outside.
- Take a cutting board and press it down on the cookie balls in order to flatten them. If you think it’s faster, take a drinking glass and flatten each cookie individually.
- Bake in a static oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 12-15 minutes. Take them out when they just start to turn golden. Let them cool while you prepare the chocolate filling.
- Gently melt the chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering hot water.
- When the chocolate is melted, you are ready to assemble the cookies. Put a dollop of chocolate on the flat surface of a cookie—you may use a teaspoon or a pastry bag—then place another cookie on top. Put the cookies on a wire rack and let them cool down before serving.
