METHOD

- Bake the cookies in a preheated 200° C (400° F) oven until lightly browned, 5-10 minutes.
SOMMELIER
These little cookies call for something like a glass of milk, a cup of tea or coffee.CHEF'S NOTES
These little cookies have a lovely aroma of butter and caramel. Their texture is sandy and crumbly and the hazelnuts reveal their flavors little by little, with a slightly salty note enhancing the overall effect.
They are delicious served with ice cream, sorbet, light custard desserts or sweet wines, either as an apéritif or at the end of a meal.
Their name comes from Agnès Sorel, born in the Tours region in the 15th century, who was the "official" mistress of Charles VII and who had a strong influence on French court life.
If you can't find the biscuit powder, you can use ladyfinger biscuits that have been ground in a food processor.
