Hazelnut biscuits
Preparation:
• Grind the nuts medium fine with the grating disk
in the food processor and set four tablespoons
of it aside.
• Process the remaining nuts, sugar, egg white and
honey with a whisk to a firm pastry.
• Sprinkle the remaining nuts onto a work surface
and roll the pastry out to about a quarter inch
thick.
• Now cut out the biscuits and place them on a
baking tray lined with baking paper.
• Join the cooled biscuits together in pairs with the
rose hip or plum jam and then coat them with
some milk chocolate and semisweet chocolate.
• Melt for both types separately.
Dip the biscuits up to half way in and let them
dry on a kitchen grid.
