Ingredients

  1. 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  2. ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  3. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  4. 1 teaspoon salt
  5. 1 cup butter, room temperature
  6. ¾ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Mix with a whisk to break up any lumps.
  3. Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time until completely incorporated. Mix in vanilla and chocolate-hazelnut spread.
  4. Slowly add in flour mixture and stir just until combined. Fold in chopped hazelnuts and chocolate chips. Drop the dough onto prepared baking sheet by tablespoons or with a cookie scoop.
  5. Bake in preheated oven until edges look dry and cookies are fragrant, about 12 minutes. Allow to cool for 1 minute on baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Mine were greasy and flat too. A little chocolate flavor but no hint of Nutella. Disappointed.
Jordan Schwartz
Good recipe…add a bit of cinnamon for an upgrade, not enough to identify the taste but to add a layer of depth, I think I used 1/4 . Also, I followed exactly and got 3 dozen cookies not 2 dozen! I also add a small piece of crystallized ginger on top for heat. Sorry I do not know how to add 1/2 star…4 1/2 Stars!
Stephanie Anderson
These are great! So tasty! They are also awesome as a sandwich cookie with cream cheese frosting.
Kelly Jackson
These always turn out great! Super easy to make and delicious!
Eric Taylor
Awesome cookie recipe. I like lots of “stuff” in my cookies so I double up on the chocolate chips and the chopped hazelnuts. My wife doesn’t like nuts in her cookies so I have to make a second batch for her without the nuts. I send these to my daughter’s best friend in Rhode Island every year for Christmas because they are her favorite cookie.
Jennifer Kirby
Incredible. did brownies in a 9×13 for 25-35 mins….way easier than cookies!
Christina Burke

Wendy Smith

Linda Sanchez
Substituted whole milk yogurt for the eggs and added an additional 1/4 cup Nutella. EXCELLENT!!!!!
Jonathan Johnson
Very good flavor, although they didn’t puff up like I wanted.
Diana Cobb
really good, the toasted hazelnuts are spectacular
Chris Jackson
They were good but not great. Prefer traditional chocolate chip cookies. Made about 6 dozen using a 1-inch cookie scoop.
Jonathan Hernandez
It was good but…..there was too much butter and too much salt. I could not taste the chocolate enough either. It’s partly my fault, I’m not the best baker but I found that there was too much of some ingredients and not enough of others.
Suzanne Kline
Don’t know what I did but they did not spread out. The still taste great.
Christina Thompson
Changes I made: Added chopped chocolate chunks, doubled Nutella, 350F for 11 minutes. Toasted hazelnuts in advance. Tablespoon sized round balls, spreads during baking. Refrigerate dough between batches to prevent flatter cookies. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
Karen Richards
These were really good! I made them for coworkers and got rave reviews. I found 12 minutes was just the right time.
Joyce Jensen
I made them as stated, although I did chill them just before putting in the oven. They are excellent!
Carla Dawson
Awesome recipe I used walnuts instead and they are a favorite
Jessica Kim
So I made these twice hoping that without the added cocoa that I’d be able to taste the Nutella more. The cookies in my photo show the two varieties—one with and one without the added cocoa. Still they were just okay for me. I need to get the okay from my Nutella lovers (granddaughters). I will edit my review when they give me the heads-up!
