Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Roasted hazelnuts
- 150 grams Bittersweet chocolate
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 whole Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, blend the roasted hazelnuts until they form a coarse meal. Be careful not to over-process into a paste.
Chop the bittersweet chocolate into small chunks and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the hazelnut meal, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly and mix in the vanilla extract.
Pour the egg mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms.
Fold in the chopped chocolate pieces until evenly distributed.
Using your hands or a spoon, scoop and roll the dough into 12 equal balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart, and gently flatten them with your palm.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the centers are soft. Do not overbake.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your no-flour hazelnut chocolate and cinnamon cookies with a cup of coffee or milk.
