How to Make German Nougatstangerl Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in the chopped hazelnuts.
  7. Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
  8. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  9. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
  12. Once cooled, spread a generous amount of Nutella onto one cookie and top with another to create a sandwich.
  13. If desired, melt the dipping chocolate and drizzle it over the finished cookies.
