Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Line baking sheet with parchment or a baking mat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer (or stand mixer), whip butter and sugar together until well combined. About 2 minutes.
- In a food processor, grind toasted hazelnuts to a fine texture, then add to the bowl with vanilla extract. Mix on low speed until combined.
- Scrape sides and mix again. Stir in all the flour until just incorporated.
- Form dough (about 2 Tbsp) into rounds, creating a small hole in the center to make a wreath or donut shape. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. You should have 12 equal circles.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until edges are barely golden. Cool on baking sheet 2 minutes before removing to cooling rack.
- Dust tops of cookies with powdered sugar and place half of a candied cherry on each wreath. Serve.
Notes
- *If you can't find candied cherries, you can use jarred maraschino cherries or red hot candies.
