Delicious biscuits with soft and chewy Nutella and hazelnuts, crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Made with hazelnut flour and yogurt, they are the cookie you need right now!

They are big shortbread biscuits that are very easy and quick to make. What do I like about these cookies? There are no fats, in fact, I replaced them with yoghurt.
Let’s jump into the recipe
I started preparing the shortcrust pastry. First, I put the hazelnuts in the freezer and then I mince them. In a large bowl, I mixed the egg with the sugar, added the yogurt and incorporated the flour a little at a time.
I kneaded until a smooth and compact dough was obtained, I wrapped it in cling film and placed it in the fridge to rest.
And finally………
I took the dough, rolled it out and formed my cookies which I then baked in the oven for about 15 minutes.
In the meantime ... I melted the Nutella in a double boiler until it was so creamy and delicious.
Once cooled, I literally dipped the biscuits in the Nutella cream and I completed everything with chopped hazelnuts.
If you love Nutella too, it's time to go and prepare these Nutella hazelnut cookies right away!
