Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix flour, softened butter, egg yolk, and a pinch of salt until a dough forms. Press firmly into a 9×13-inch sheet pan.

  2. Step 2

    Spread hazelnut spread evenly over the dough, leaving a 0.5-inch border. Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts over the spread.

  3. Step 3

    Bake at 375°F for 12–14 minutes until the crust is pale golden and hazelnuts smell fragrant.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from oven and sprinkle sugar over the hot surface. Cool for 5 minutes, then slice into squares.

  5. Step 5

    Cut diagonally from corner to corner to form triangles. Serve warm or at room temperature.
