Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
2
In a food processor add hazelnuts and process until they resemble fine breadcrumbs. Add in salt, flour and sugar and pulse 4 times to combine.
3
Add in butter and pulse 6 to 8 times to combine. Make sure butter is evenly distributed throughout flour.
4
Slowly add in ice water until dough just comes together (it should just hold together when pressed in your hand). If it's too sticky, blend in 1 tablespoon of flour at a time until no longer sticky.
5
Form into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
6
To make cookies cut dough ball into about 3 to 4 even pieces. Dust a work surface with flour and roll out 1 piece of dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into silver-dollar sized cookies. Repeat with remaining dough balls.
7
Working in batches, place cookies on a sheet pan and bake 15 to 18 minutes or until just slightly browned but still soft to the touch. Transfer to a rack to cool.

Chef's Tip: Spread Nutella or Sabatino Tartufi Pistachio Cream on each cookie and make mini cookie sandwiches.
