- 7 oz unsalted butter 200g
- 3 oz sugar 80g
- 1 egg yolk
- 6 oz hazelnut flour 170g, ground hazelnuts
- 8.75 oz all purpose flour 250g plain flour
Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
Cream together the butter, sugar and egg yolk until well combined.
Add the hazelnut and regular flour, mix well and bring the mixture together into a ball.
Roll out mixture on a lightly floured surface to about ¼in/3-4mm thick and cut with cutters or into shapes.
Place cut shapes onto a baking sheet/tray and bake for approx 8-10min until lightly brown. If they go a bit browner they will still taste fine, they will just be a bit more brittle.
Decorate as desired (simple icing is confectioners/icing sugar mixed with water on an approx 4:1 ratio).
