These are German nut triangles (Nussecken) according to my granny’s recipe. I have to admit, I was quite surprised to find this recipe in her handwritten bookelt, which is had for many years. For some reason I didn’t expect her to have a classic in there. But I was super excited to give this recipe a try. Think a shortbread base, a thin layer of apricot jam, ground hazelnuts mixed with melted butter and sugar and the entire thing dipped in melted chocolate. I don’t know about you, but for me this is heaven.
