Cinnamon Hazelnut Cookies
These charming, hazelnut-studded mini-cookies are inspired by a buttery Middle Eastern pastry called ghorayebah. Slow-baked to keep them very light in color, they are delicious with sips of espresso-strength Turkish-style coffee.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Organic Valley European Style Cultured Butter, very soft
- 7⁄8 cup sugar
- 2 1⁄2 cups flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1⁄2 cup whole hazelnuts
Directions
Heat oven to 300 degrees. Beat butter until it is pale. Gradually add sugar and beat until smooth, 5-7 minutes. Stir in flour. Briefly knead batter until soft dough forms. Roll into small balls; place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten each ball on one side so that half of the cookie is flattened and the other is not. Press a hazelnut into middle of the higher side. Bake 20 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
Makes 50 small cookies.
