UGLY-BUT-GOOD HAZELNUT COOKIES (BRUTTI MA BUONI)



Ugly-but-Good Hazelnut Cookies (Brutti ma Buoni) image

Some say brutti ma buoni, which translates to ugly but good, hail from Tuscany, though they're sold all over Italy. Featuring a mouthwatering combo of chopped hazelnuts, dark chocolate, and meringue, the cookies may not win any beauty contests, but they sure are delicious. Bonus: they're dairy- and gluten-free!

Yield Makes about 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups (7 ounces) hazelnuts
9 large egg whites
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate (70 percent cacao), coarsely chopped (3/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Roast hazelnuts on a baking sheet until fragrant and lightly toasted, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool briefly, then rub off skins with a clean kitchen towel. Coarsely chop hazelnuts.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium-low speed until foamy, about 4 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high and gradually add sugar. Beat until meringue is stiff and shiny, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla and salt.
  • Scrape meringue into a large heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add chopped hazelnuts. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly and scraping bottom of pan to make sure meringue does not burn, until mixture is light brown and pulls away from sides of pan, about 15 minutes. (Mixture will look curdled after first 5 minutes of cooking.)
  • Increase oven temperature to 325 degrees. Remove pan from heat and let cool to room temperature. Fold in chocolate.
  • Scoop mounds, about 2 tablespoons each, onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake until cookies are crisp on outside but soft and chewy inside, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire rack and let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

  • Preheat your oven to 250°F (121°C) and chop the hazelnuts into medium-coarse grains and have them ready to add to your meringue mixture. Pulse them intermittently in your food processor so the blade doesn’t heat up the nuts too much and render them bitter. I’d even suggest refrigerating your food processor bowl and blade before processing the nuts;
  • Separate your eggs, but be careful not to get yolks in the whites. Even a tiny bit of yolk can ruin the meringue. With the whisk attachment, beat the whites for 5-6 minutes until you get very stiff peaks. It should be fluffy, white, and thick;
  • Sift in the powdered sugar and the cocoa powder but add only a tablespoon at a time. Eventually, add the vanilla extract. (if you use a vanilla bean, split it down its length and scrape out the seeds from half a bean);
