If you're nuts about chocolate give these bikkies a go! Looking over some old magazines, I found this recipe in the April '05 edition of Super Food Ideas. To roast hazelnuts: Spread them on a baking tray, and roast in 180°C (356°F) oven for 12 - 15 mins or until skins are dry and split. Tip hot hazelnuts into a clean tea towel and rub them together to remove the dry, brown skins.
Ingredients:
125 g butter, chopped
250 g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
3 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup roasted hazelnuts
vanilla ice cream, to serve
Directions:
1. Prehat oven to 200°C (400°F) and line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
2. Combine butter and chopped dark chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth and combined.
3. Transfer to a large bowl, add eggs and sugar. Stir until combined.
4. Sift flour and cocoa together over the chocolate mixture, then gently fold through.
5. Add choc chips and hazelnuts, stir until combined.
6. Drop tablespoonfuls of biscuit mixture onto baking trays, allowing room for spreading.
7. Bake for 10 - 12 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
