*Reviewed during ZWT4* Mmm....these were great. Like a hazelnut macaroon. I used 150 grams hazelnut meal to make these. Mine weren't thick enough to roll and I had no more hazelnuts to add - so I piped them rather than rolling. Must have made mine too big as I made around 30. My daughters loved them and even sandwiched them together with Nutella. I think they would taste just like a rocher if we had topped them with some melted chocolate. Photo also to be posted.
