Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Mix the flour, sugar, vanilla seeds, and hazelnuts in a bowl.
  • Beat the eggs and butter until fluffy and combine with the flour mixture to form a dough ball.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll into two 24cm long rectangles with 1cm thickness.
  • Bake on a baking sheet for 20 minutes until golden.
  • Cool for 15 minutes, cut into 12 biscuits per sheet using a cutter, and bake for 15 more minutes until crisp.
  • Dust the cooled biscuits with icing sugar.
  • Soak gelatine leaves in cold water for 15 minutes.
  • Macerate half of the raspberries with icing sugar and liqueur.
  • Heat the remaining raspberries with caster sugar until dissolved, then stir in the softened gelatine.
  • Purée the mixture until smooth and let it cool.
  • Fold the lemon zest and whipped cream into the raspberry purée.
  • Layer the macerated raspberries and mousse into glasses and garnish with biscotti.
