Nut Cookies Sliced with a Knife – Notes
Today I have for you a recipe for very simple sliced nut cookies in chocolate.
Instead of cutting out or rolling into balls, these cookies are sliced with a knife.
To prepare nut cookies, you only need four ingredients!
- butter
- ground nuts
- flour
- sugar
And of course, chocolate for decoration – but the cookies are delicious even without it.
How to Make Sliced Nut Cookies – Tips
First, you need to cream soft (I emphasize – soft!) butter with sugar (I used powdered sugar to cream the butter faster).
Then add flour and ground nuts to the butter.
Which nuts to use?
Whichever you like, or whichever you have at home.
I used hazelnuts. But you can add walnuts, almonds, or even peanuts.
Divide the prepared dough into two parts and shape it into a log.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.
Once the dough is chilled, unwrap it from the foil and slice it with a sharp knife into pieces about 0.5-1 cm thick.
Bake the cookies, and once they cool, dip them in melted chocolate.

How to melt chocolate for cookie glaze?
It’s best to do it in a double boiler.
Pour a little water into the bottom of a pot, place a bowl on top (so it doesn’t touch the water’s surface), and add broken chocolate and a teaspoon of oil to it.
Heat the water in the pot until the chocolate melts.
Dip the sliced nut cookies in the melted chocolate.
You can eat the cookies immediately with the liquid chocolate, or place them on baking paper and wait for the chocolate to cool.
I wish you bon appétit and also invite you to bake other cookies from my recipes :)
