Ingredients
Ingredients for approx. 30-40 biscuits
| 3 | tablespoons | Flour for biscuits and shortcrust pastry |
| 3 | eggs | |
| 250 | g | sugar |
| 140 | g | chocolate |
| 250 | g | Hazelnuts Bio |
| 2 | tablespoons | rum |
| 1 | tablespoons | honey |
| 1 | teaspoon | cinnamon |
| 140 | g | breadcrumbs |
| q.s. | Powdered sugar |
Preparation
- Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt it carefully. You can do this by placing it in a bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) or microwaving it in short intervals, stirring occasionally until completely melted and smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until the mixture is light and creamy. A hand mixer or stand mixer at medium-high speed works best to achieve a fluffy consistency. Gradually add the melted chocolate to the egg-sugar mixture, stirring to combine well. Add the ground hazelnuts, flour, rum, honey, and cinnamon, and mix thoroughly. Finally, add the breadcrumbs and stir until you have a fairly thick, moldable dough.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the dough to firm up, making it easier to shape into balls.
- After the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 140°C fan.
- Form walnut-sized balls from the chilled dough. It helps to slightly dampen your hands to prevent sticking. Roll each ball thoroughly in powdered sugar to coat.
- Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each one. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25 minutes at 140°C. The balls should be slightly firm on the outside but still soft on the inside. After baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet.
