Nocciola Baci (Hazelnut Kisses)
Get a load of these itty-bitty cookies—aren’t they the cutest? These little “hazelnut kisses” aren’t just cute, they’re delectable too. They taste like crispy little bites of Nutella. Chocolate and hazelnut is obviously a timeless flavor combination when you consider the fact that this recipe was created at the Zanotti Bakery in Tortona, Italy over 100 years ago.
