Makes 12-14 biscuits 

 

Ingredients:

2 medium eggs

100g caster sugar

250g plain flour, plus extra for dusting

½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

75g toasted hazelnuts 

1 tsp almond extract 

Good quality vanilla ice-cream 

4 servings of strong coffee 

Adding a shot of vodka to the coffee is an option for the grown-ups! 

 

Method:

Preheat oven to 170c.

Pour the sugar, flour and bicarbonate into a mixing bowl and blend. 

Add in both the eggs, hazelnuts and almond extract and fold together to make a soft dough. 

Tip onto a lightly floured surface, shape the dough into a sausage shape with lightly floured hands, then transfer to a baking sheet. 

Bake for 30 minutes until lightly browned.

Then remove and slide onto a chopping board, reduce the oven temperature to 160C. 

Cut the log into 1cm thick slices and return to the baking sheet, cut-sides up. 

Bake for a further 10-15 minutes until crisp, then cool on a wire rack.
