Preparation of the hemp cookies:

Quickly knead a shortcrust pastry from butter, sugar, vanilla egg, spelt flour, hemp flour, baking powder and hemp seeds and leave to rest in the fridge for about 1 hour. Then roll out the shortcrust pastry to a thickness of about 3mm and cut out circles or hemp leaves. Bake in a convection oven at 180° for about 7 minutes. Spread the cooled biscuits with nougat and put them together, then dip halfway into liquid chocolate and leave to harden.

VARIANT:

Instead of nougat, spread hemp biscuits with jam and then assemble.
