These crispy cookie treats can be changed up—try different nuts and jams, and dark or white chocolate depending on the holiday. —Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar, divided
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons apricot preserves or flavor of your choice
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped hazelnuts or nuts of your choice
  • 7 ounces dark chocolate candy coating, melted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, cream butter and 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour and baking powder; gradually beat into creamed mixture.
  2. Press dough into a greased 8-in. square baking pan; spread with preserves. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, water and remaining 1/2 cup sugar; stir in hazelnuts. Spread over preserves.
  3. Bake until edges are golden brown and center is set, 30-35 minutes. Cool 15 minutes on a wire rack. Cut into sixteen 2-in. squares. Cut squares into triangles. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
  4. Dip 1 side of each triangle halfway into melted chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set. Store in an airtight container.
