Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate mini-morsels
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 cup butter, cut into pieces and softened
  • 1/2 cup hazelnuts, toasted, chopped, and divided
  • Parchment paper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Pulse mini-morsels in a food processor 10 times or until morsels are almost ground. Remove to a bowl. Add flour, powdered sugar, cornstarch, and butter to food processor. Cover; process just until a dough forms and mixture holds its shape. Stir in 1/4 cup hazelnuts and ground mini-morsels. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough to about 1/2-inch thickness; cut with a 2-inch scallop-shaped cutter. Press remaining 1/4 cup hazelnuts into top of each cookie. Place 1 inch apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets.
  2. Bake at 325° for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets 5 minutes; transfer to wire racks, and cool completely (about 30 minutes).
  3. To toast and skin hazelnuts, place nuts in a single layer in a shallow pan. Bake at 350° for 5 to 10 minutes or until skins begin to split. Transfer warm nuts to a colander; using a towel, rub briskly to remove skins.
