Hazelnut shortbread

  • Ingredients
  • 125g butter, at room temperature
  • 60g pure icing sugar, sifted
  • 60g hazelnut meal
  • 115g (3/4 cup) plain flour
  • 100g (1/3 cup) Nutella Hazelnut Spread
  • Method
  1. Step 1
    Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
  2. Step 2
    Use an electric beater to beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until pale and creamy. Add the hazelnut meal and flour and fold to combine. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 1cm-diameter fluted nozzle.
  3. Step 3
    Pipe small spirals of dough, about 2.5cm wide, onto the lined trays, allowing room for spreading. Bake in oven for 12 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Step 4
    Spread the bases of half the shortbread with the Nutella. Top with the remaining shortbread, base-side down.
