Oreshnitsa - 10 cooking recipes

Those same treasured nut nuts that are adapted for making cookies in the form of real walnuts (most often) are divided into several different categories.

The first, the oldest, but nevertheless popular, is a heavy metal form that looks like a frying pan with two bottoms, designed for cooking on the stove. It makes no difference: gas or electric. In 90% of cases, this can be found in the kitchen of any Russian housewife, almost certainly preserved from grandmother or mother.

The second, more modern one is electric. There are a lot of variations here - the shape, size, and power may differ.

The third, perhaps intended for more experienced confectioners, is silicone.

In addition, all three varieties of hazel have the so-called. "subspecies". In some you can cook nut cookies in halves. And in others - entirely. The first ones are prepared with fillings, and the second ones - without. That is, in some we bake halves of nuts, which we then put together, “gluing” them together with cream on boiled condensed milk (as a rule). And others are baked entirely in the form of balls. These are more suitable for softer and more delicate biscuit dough.

There are a large number of recipes for nuts in the hazelnut, which can be very different from each other. But almost everyone involves kneading shortcrust pastry in butter or margarine. As already mentioned, the filling is mainly boiled condensed milk. But you can take any jam, marmalade, confiture, thick cream. In this case, the halves of the cookies can be glued together with sugar syrup.

You can put pieces of fruits, nuts, candied fruits, and sweets inside.

There is a serving in which the halves are filled with a beautiful filling and placed on a dish without gluing. Although the cookies bear little resemblance to those same nuts. But the scope for creativity is wider.
