Nussecke

Nussecke (German, "nut corner") is a traditional German triangular cookie made from a buttery shortcrust base topped with a caramelized mixture of ground nuts, typically hazelnuts or almonds. After baking, the edges of the cookie are often dipped in melted chocolate, creating a contrast between the crisp, nutty filling and the sweet, rich coating. It is a popular treat in German bakeries and is commonly enjoyed during the holiday season, although it is available year-round.
