Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

  • ½ cup butter, at room temperature

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread (such as Nutella)

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips

  • ½ cup chopped hazelnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

  2. Cream butter and sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract; beat well. Mix in chocolate-hazelnut spread until well combined. Gradually mix in flour and cocoa powder. Stir in chocolate chips and hazelnuts.

  3. Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow the cookies to sit in the oven for 2 minutes more. Serve cookies warm or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cook’s Note

Sliced hazelnuts can be used instead of chopped hazelnuts, if preferred.

This can be divided into 2 separate batches. You can put the second batch in a plastic bag and refrigerate for a few days, or you could place in the freezer for a longer time. Let it come back to room temperature for a little bit before dropping onto the cookie sheet.
