Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 160 degree celsius.
Beat the butter, vanilla essence and sugars together until creamy and smooth (1-2 minutes.) Add the egg and beat until the mix lightens and is a whipped consistency.
Stir in the oat flour (I ground whole oats in a nut grinder) until well combined, then fold through the chopped chocolate and hazelnuts until evenly distributed.
Spoon tablespoon size balls onto a lined baking tray; these spread quite a bit so ensure there is sufficient space in between them.
Bake for 16-20 minutes until golden.
Cool on a wire rack and try not to burn your mouth sneaking a few here and there. I think these take better once they have cooled because they are lovely and chewy.
