Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 and line a cookie sheet with parchment. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, 1/4 tsp. cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
Using a mixer, cream 1 stick butter, brown sugar, 1/4 cup sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Mix in the flour mixture at low speed.
In a small bowl, mix together the remaining sugar and cinnamon. Using a 1.5 inch scoop, form 12 mounds. Dip the rounded side of each mound into the sugar mixture to coat, then place sugar side up on cookie sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Let cool for two minutes then more to rack to finish cooling.
Finely grind the hazelnuts. Add the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons butter; process until smooth. Spread 6 cookies with 2 teaspoons of hazelnut cream and then sandwich with another cookie.
