Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup finely chopped hazelnuts
• 2 tablespoons cold water

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and brown sugar.
3. Add the butter, vanilla extract, and hazelnuts to the flour mixture. Use your fingertips to mix everything together until the mixture comes together into a dough.
4. Add the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough.
5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
6. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Roll the dough out to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
7. Cut the dough into 2-inch circles using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass. Transfer the circles to the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
