Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together 1 cup of softened, unsalted butter and 1 cup of Nutella using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy and well combined, about 3-4 minutes.
- Mix in 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of kosher salt until smooth and fluffy.
- Crack in one large egg and one egg yolk into the mixture, then blend on low speed until just incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
- Gradually add this dry mixture into the wet batter, mixing gently until just combined.
- Next, add in 1 cup of chopped hazelnuts and fold them into the dough using a spatula.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Wrap the cookie dough tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls, then roll each ball in finely chopped hazelnuts.
- Place the coated cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 11-12 minutes or until the edges are just golden and the centers look set but still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
- Drizzle some melted Nutella over the warm cookies before they cool completely.
