Ingredients

  • 375 g flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 200 g sugar
  • 1 sachet vanilla sugar
  • 250 g butter
  • 1 Egg white
  • 120 g ground hazelnuts
  • 150 g currant jam
  • powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Knead flour, baking powder, sugar, vanilla sugar, butter pieces, egg white and ground hazelnuts into a dough. Form into a ball, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  2. 2.

    Roll the dough to about 0.7 cm thickness on a floured surface and cut out round cookie shapes with a wavy edge cutter (≈5 cm diameter). From half of the cookies, cut small stars in the center. Place cookies on a parchment-lined baking tray and bake at 180°C for about 12 minutes. Remove and let cool.

  3. 3.

    Warm the jam and brush it over the non-star cookies. Brush the remaining cookies, press slightly together and allow to dry. Dust with powdered sugar.
