Utziger Hasselnuss Leckerli

Finally I get to use the candied orange and lemon peels made a week or 2 ago. This cookie has many similarities in both basic ingredients and method to the Berner Hasselnuss in my last post.


Although, it has a completely different texture. It is fragrant from the fruit peels and has a chewy texture. This cookie can easily be made gluten free because the flour used is insignificant to the entire cookie (3 tbsp) and likely acts as a binder and can easily be replaced with sweet rice flour which will probably add to the chewy quality. Just like the Berner Hasselnuss, this recipe came from the same book. E likes this better than the Berner Hasselnuss but I like the Berner Hasselnuss better.
