Servings: 24
Ingredients
- Unsalted butter
- 1 cup, softened
- Powdered sugar
- 1 cup
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- All-purpose flour
- 2 cups
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Hazelnuts
- 1 cup, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt until evenly distributed.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
- Gently fold in the finely chopped hazelnuts until evenly incorporated.
- Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Using a fork, gently press down on each ball to flatten slightly, creating a crisscross pattern.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy these Heavenly Hazelnut Sandies with a cup of your favorite tea or coffee!
