Delicious Chocolate Hazelnut Kooloorakia

They aren’t cookies, they aren’t biscuits. In Greece, we call them “kooloorakia” and they’re somewhere in between. Crispy or soft, crumbly or chewy, with butter or with olive oil… There are so many recipes and all you need is a glass of milk or a cup of coffee to enjoy them with!
This recipe is a healthy and full of flavors combination. They’re made with olive oil, which gives them a soft and moist texture and they’re low fat. The small amount of butter used in this recipe, gives only its sweet flavor. They have a rich chocolaty taste, perfectly combined with the toasted hazelnuts and the aroma of the orange zest.
