Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup whole hazelnuts, toasted and skins removed
  • 3/4 cup sugar, divided
  • 1 package (7 ounces) almond paste, crumbled
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, melted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Place hazelnuts and 1/4 cup sugar in a food processor; process until nuts are finely ground. Add almond paste, egg whites and remaining sugar; process until blended, about 3 minutes.
  2. Cut a small hole in the tip of a pastry bag; insert a large star pastry tip. Fill bag with hazelnut mixture. Pipe 1-1/4-in. rosettes 2 in. apart onto parchment-lined baking sheets.
  3. Bake until light brown, 12-14 minutes. Cool on pans 1 minute. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
  4. Dip bottom of each cookie in melted chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets; refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
To toast whole hazelnuts, spread hazelnuts in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake in a 350° oven 7-10 minutes or until fragrant and lightly browned, stirring occasionally. To remove skins, wrap hazelnuts in a tea towel; rub with towel to loosen skins.
