Instructions
1
Heat and mix
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F / Gas mark 4). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the butter, brown sugar, and golden syrup in a large saucepan and heat over low flame, stirring, until the sugar has completely dissolved.

Stir in the instant coffee powder and orange zest until the coffee has dissolved. Remove from the heat and fold in the flour.

Bake and cool
Use a teaspoon to scoop the dough onto the prepared tray, spacing the mounds about 5 cm apart, and sprinkle the toasted hazelnut flakes on top. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, then leave on the tray for 1 to 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
