Hazelnut Cookies

They look like the first Christmas cookies but weren’t meant to be. I simply wanted to use the remaining egg yolk of my meringue pastry. The original recipe found on “Rezeptwiese.de” proposes  to cover the cookies with icing sugar. For half of my cookies I chose a chocolate top which we liked very much too. In any case both sorts of cookies are suited for Christmas.
