Heat oven to 350 F (175 C). Combine flour, yolks, butter, and half cup white sugar in a mixing bowl. Knead mixture into a dough, and let chill for at least half an hour.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8th in. thickness. Using cookie cutters, cut a heart for the bottom of the cookie, and another heart (in the same size) for the top, with a smaller heart cut out in the center. Using the lightly beaten egg whites, glaze the cookie tops, and sprinkle the nuts with remaining white sugar OR bake plain and dust tops with powdered sugar.
Bake on an parchment lined cookie sheet for 10 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
Spread jelly on bottom hearts, then place the tops on, to create a sandwich.
