'Brutti ma buoni' biscuits
Judge not by appearance, until you try these wonderfully crisp and chewy Italian biscuits.
Ingredients (4)
- 2/3 cup (100g) roasted hazelnuts
- 50g good-quality dark chocolate, chopped
- 2 eggwhites
- 1/2 cup (110g) caster sugar
Method
-
1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
-
2.Pulse the nuts and chocolate in a food processor until finely chopped. (Be careful not to over-process the nuts.)
-
3.In a clean bowl, beat eggwhites and a pinch of sugar with electric beaters until soft peaks form. Slowly add remaining sugar, continuing to beat until thick and glossy. Gently fold in nuts and chocolate.
-
4.Dollop dessertspoonfuls of the mixture onto the trays, spaced well apart. Place in the oven and immediately turn it off. Leave biscuits undisturbed in the oven overnight; they'll be crisp and dry by morning. Store in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
