Hazelnut Cocoa Cookies image

These cookies are great with a little milk, or all by their lonesome. A rich, chewy, nutty, dark chocolate taste that's more than just bittersweet. Enjoy.

Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup unsalted butter at room temperature
¾ cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, such as Nutella®
½ cup white sugar
⅔ cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Beat the butter, chocolate-hazelnut spread, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Blend the whole egg into the butter mixture. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix the dry mixture into the egg and sugar mixture about 1/3 at a time until all the flour is incorporated. Gather the dough into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Roll dough into large balls (about the size of a golf ball) and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until cookie is slightly firm on the outside, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on pans before removing.
