Hazelnut CookiesROMULO YANES

My mom worked full-time as a physical therapist, yet prepared dinner each night for our family of five. By necessity, she was the queen of the shortcut. Mom served these quick and simple hazelnut cookies when we had company. The dough freezes well, so the recipe can easily be doubled to keep on hand for entertaining.

Active time: 25 min Start to finish: 2 hr (includes chilling)

Cooks' notes:

• Dough can be chilled up to 12 hours or frozen, wrapped well in plastic wrap, up to 1 month. (Thaw before cutting and baking.) • Cookies keep in an airtight container at room temperature 2 weeks.
