Instructions

1

Prepare the hazelnuts

Roast the whole hazelnuts at 170°C for 15 minutes. Remove the skins through a coarse sieve. Crush them with a rolling pin. Sift together with the powdered sugar.

Make the batter

Whip the egg whites, gradually adding the sugar to make a meringue. Gently fold the meringue into the hazelnut and powdered sugar mixture.

Shape and bake

Using a 1.5 cm high scraper, pipe into heart-shaped disks (1 cm smaller than the assembly ring, 2 per dessert). Sprinkle with roasted chopped hazelnuts. Bake at 170°C for 25-30 minutes with the oven door ajar. Cool completely.
