Ingredients

  1. 250g butter

  2. 1/3 cup (75g) caster sugar

  3. 1 tsp Queen Organic Vanilla Bean Paste

  4. 2 1/3 cups (350g) plain flour

  5. 1 cup (100g) hazelnut meal

  6. 1 large egg white

  7. 1 – 1 1/2 cups (150g – 225g) icing sugar

Method

  1. 1

    In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together until light and creamy then beat in the vanilla.

  2. 2

    Add remaining ingredients (except icing sugar) and mix until it all comes together.

  3. 3

    Shape the dough into a ball. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Take the dough out of the fridge 30 minutes before you want to shape it and preheat the oven to 160°C fan-forced and line a baking tray with baking paper.

  5. 5

    Using a tablespoon of dough at a time, roll into a ball then roll into a log about 5cm long and 1.5cm wide. Gently shape it into a crescent and place on the baking tray. The biscuits don’t spread so you can place them close together.

  6. 6

    Bake for 8-10 minutes only then leave on the trays for 5 minutes. Place the icing sugar in a bowl and carefully toss the biscuits in it then place on a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
