How to Make Hazelnut Fig Twists
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chopped hazelnuts and chopped figs.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Cut the dough into 2-inch wide strips.
- Twist each strip twice and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the twists cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle with melted chocolate (optional) and enjoy!
