Hazelnut-Chocolate Chip Tuiles
- 1/3 cup hazelnuts
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ounce bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- Spread the hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and toast for 7 minutes, or until deeply browned; let cool slightly.
- Transfer the hazelnuts to a kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove the skin.
- Let the nuts cool completely.
- In a food processor, pulse the hazelnuts until coarsely ground.
- Butter 2 large, heavy baking sheets.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the ground hazelnuts with the flour and salt.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter with the light brown and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla.
- At low speed, beat in the dry ingredients just until combined.
- Stir in the chopped chocolate.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of the batter about 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Using the back of a spoon, spread the batter into 1 1/2-inch rounds.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
- Using a thin metal spatula, quickly transfer the tuiles to a rack or drape them over a rolling pin until cool.
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
