Jam And Hazelnut Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread hazelnuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Spray three 9 1/2‐by‐12 1/2‐inch rimmed baking sheets (also called quarter‐sheet pans) with cooking spray. Line with parchment; spray parchment.
• In a food processor, finely grind cooled hazelnuts. Add confectioners' sugar, 1 egg white, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Blend until mixture holds together. Transfer to a mixer bowl fitted with a TK attachment. Add 1 cup granulated sugar, and beat on medium speed until combined, about 2 minutes. Add butter and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Add liqueur to mixer, then egg yolks, one at a time, beating to combine after each addition. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour and remaining 1 teaspoon salt until combined.
• In a clean bowl, beat remaining 5 egg whites in mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed until soft peaks form, gradually adding remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Continue beating until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk into flour mixture in two additions. Divide mixture equally between three bowls (one can be the bowl you mixed in).
• Stir ground raspberries into one bowl, matcha into another, and leave third plain. Spread each batter evenly into a separate prepared pan. Bake, rotating pans once, until just set, dry on top, and just beginning to pull away from sides of pan, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely in pans on wire racks.
• Turn green cake out of its pan onto a parchment‐lined baking sheet or cutting board. Remove parchment. Spread half of jam evenly over cake, all the way to edges. Turn out white cake onto green cake; remove parchment. Spread remaining jam over white cake. Turn out pink cake onto white; remove parchment. Wrap in plastic and top with a small baking sheet or board and a few cans to weigh down. Refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours.
• Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, or in a microwave. Just before all is melted, remove from heat; stir with a spatula until completely melted. Pour half of chocolate over cake and spread evenly with an offset spatula.
• Refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Flip over and repeat on second side with remaining chocolate. Refrigerate 10 minutes. Cut into 1 1/4‐inch squares. Refrigerate in a single layer in an airtight container up to 1 week, or store at room temperature up to 2 days.

Steps:

• BEAT sugar and shortening in large bowl with electric mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and lemon peel, beating until well blended. Combine flour, ground hazelnuts, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add flour mixture gradually to shortening mixture at low speed until smooth. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Wrap each one with plastic wrap. Freeze 30 minutes.
• HEAT oven to 350ºF. Roll 1/4 of dough between 2 sheets of lightly floured wax paper to 1/8-inch thickness. Remove top sheet of wax paper. Cut with a floured 2-inch round scalloped cutter. Cut centers out of half of the cookies with a 3/4 to 1-inch cutter. Place 2-inches apart on ungreased baking sheet.
• BAKE 6 to 7 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute on baking sheet. Remove to cooling rack. Repeat with remaining dough. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon preserves on bottom side of each whole cookie. Sprinkle tops of center cut-out cookies with powdered sugar. Place on top of cookies with preserves.
• If dough becomes too soft while cutting, place in freezer for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Beat butter, 1 cup powdered sugar, and citrus peels in large bowl until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks. Beat in dry ingredients in 4 additions; beat in nuts. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap; chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out half of dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Using 2-inch round cutter, cut out rounds. Using 3/4-inch round cutter, cut out center of half of rounds to make rings. Transfer rounds and rings to prepared sheets. Gather dough scraps; chill.
• Bake cookies until golden, reversing sheets after 10 minutes, about 22 minutes total. Cool completely on sheets. Repeat until all dough is used. Do ahead Store airtight at room temperature up to 2 days or freeze up to 2 weeks.
• Arrange cookie rings on work surface. Sift powdered sugar over. Spread 1 teaspoon jam on each cookie round. Press rings onto jam on rounds. Do ahead Can be assembled 1 day ahead. Store between sheets of waxed paper in airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place the hazelnuts in a food processor and grind coarsely. Reserve 1/4 cup of the hazelnuts. Grind the remaining nuts fine and add the oil. Blend the mixture thoroughly into a hazelnut butter. Set aside.
• Cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy (this can be done in the washed food processor or with an electric mixer in a bowl). Beat in the hazelnut butter, the egg and the vanilla. Mix thoroughly.
• Sift the flour and add with the baking soda and the salt. Mix thoroughly and add the reserved hazelnuts. Using a teaspoon, form the dough into balls and arrange them 2 inches apart on baking sheets that have been greased or lined with parchment paper. Using the prongs of a fork that have been dipped into flour to prevent sticking, flatten the balls into 1 1/2 inch rounds (Tip: If you want a clearly visible criss-cross design on the cookies, chill dough for 30 minutes before doing so).
• Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-to-9 minutes or until the cookies are golden. Cool on racks. The cookies will keep for about a week in a sealed jar.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Toast hazelnuts in a shallow baking pan until fragrant and skins begin to loosen, about 6 minutes. Rub nuts in a kitchen towel to remove any loose skins (some skins may not come off) and cool to room temperature.
• Pulse nuts and 1/4 cup sugar in a food processor until nuts are finely ground, then add flour and a pinch of salt, pulsing until combined. Add butter and pulse until dough just forms a ball. Divide dough in half, then roll dough on a work surface lightly dusted with sugar and flour into 2 (11-inch-long) logs (each about 1 inch wide). Chill, wrapped in plastic wrap, 1 hour.
• Cut logs crosswise into 1/2-inch slices and arrange rounds 2 inches apart on 2 baking sheets.
• Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until bottom edges just begin to turn pale golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool cookies on sheet 2 minutes. Place remaining 3 tablespoons sugar in a small dish and dip tops of cookies in it, then cool sugared cookies on a rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl using an electric mixer. Add egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl and mix into egg mixture until just combined. Fold in chopped hazelnuts.
• Use a tablespoon to cut off little portions of dough; roll them into balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet with room in between.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 20 minutes.
