Put all the ingredients for the dough in a mixing bowl and use the dough hook of the hand mixer to make a shortcrust pastry. Finally knead again with your hands, shape into a ball, wrap in cling film and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Line the baking sheets with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees top-bottom heat. The baking time is approx. 12 minutes on the middle rack.
Roll out the dough thinly in portions on a lightly floured worktop. A cling film that is placed on the dough is also ideal for this, so nothing sticks to the corrugated wood. Cut out talers with a round shape and place them on the baking sheet with the help of a knife. Put the cookies in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown for about 12 minutes. Do the same with the rest of the dough. Let the baked cookies cool on a wire rack.
Roast the almond flakes in a pan without fat over a mild heat and allow to cool on a plate. Crush something with your fingers. Heat the hazelnut nougat in a small bowl in a water bath over mild heat until it is spreadable. Dissolve the hazelnut glaze in a second bowl in a water bath.
Spread hazelnut nougat on the underside of the cookies and always put 2 pieces together. Brush with the hazelnut glaze and sprinkle with the flaked almonds.
The recipe makes about 45 filled nut thalers.
The Nussaler are also wonderfully suitable as coffee or tea biscuits all year round. Then simply choose the cookie cutter a little larger.
