Ingredients
- 2 egg whites
- 180 g granulated sugar of your choice
- 400g hazelnut flour
- 200g orange mango jam(or any other kind you like)
- 50g dark chocolate chips
- 20g icing sugar(for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C/340°F.
- In a bowl beat the egg whites until they are stiff.
- Add the sugar of your choice and beat again until well incorporated.
- Add the hazelnut flour and fold in the flour, best with a spatula or a wooden spoon.
- Form little balls of the cookie dough and place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Press the balls down to get a cookie shape and sprinkle on half on them some icing sugar.
- In the other half of the cookies press a hole with a spoon handle, fill the holes with some jam and place some chocolate chips on the top in order to cover the jam more or less.
- Now place the cookies in the oven and let them bake until golden, around 12 – 15 minutes, not longer.
- Let them cool well on a cooling rack and then sprinkle again some icing sugar on the non-jam- cookies.
- Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
As sugar I used Xylit, but you can use as well coconut sugar or any other you like as long it is granulated and no honey (honey has to much humidity and alters the consistency of the dough).
You can omit the icing sugar and leave them plain.
