# How to Make It:
01 - Set oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing overhang for removal.
02 - Whisk together flour, ground toasted hazelnuts, baking powder, and sea salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, honey, and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
04 - Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
05 - Add half of the dry ingredients to wet mixture and mix until just combined. Pour in milk, stir gently, then fold in remaining dry ingredients until smooth; avoid overmixing.
06 - Evenly spread the batter into the prepared pan; scatter chopped toasted hazelnuts on top.
07 - Bake for 22–25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center is clean and top is golden brown.
08 - Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. While warm, drizzle with remaining honey.
09 - Once fully cooled, cut into 16 squares and serve.
