Instructions
  1. Make a batch of sugar cookie dough. Let chill for 30 minutes or overnight.
  2. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cookie pans with parchment paper.
  3. Rolling your chilled dough between two pieces of parchment paper helps keep the dough tender, as you do not need to flour the rolling pin or the dough. Roll out about two thirds of the dough and cut out twelve thin, round cookies. Carefully transfer cookies to a parchment-lined cookie pan.
  4. Roll out the other half of your dough, adding in the scraps from the first cutting. Cut out 12 more thin, round cookies. Now, using a smaller heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out the center of 12 cookies, so that you have a heart-shaped hole in the middle!!
  5. Gently transfer your cookies to the baking pans. Bake until golden brown for added crispiness and flavour! The inside hearts make a delicious treat, especially when iced with a little of the hazelnut filling!!
  6. Cool thoroughly before building your "sweetheart cookies"! When the cookies are cool, spread your hazelnut filling on the bottom round cookie and gently place a cookie with the heart-shaped hole on top. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes

For added fanciness, you could dust with icing sugar! Serve up the love!
