I got the idea for these cookies while browsing Cooking Classy’s Food blog.  I came across her Nutella Stuffed cookies and thought they looked incredible.  I didn’t have the time for the extra step of stuffing the cookies, but it made me crave the flavor combinations so I came up with my own recipe.


Oh my goodness, is this a cookie you need to try! These decadent cookies are like getting two different kinds of cookies in one amazing treat. They aren’t just your everyday double chocolate chip cookie, these little beauties have Nutella mixed right into the dough!


Chocolate and hazelnut flavors not only make these cookies  deliciously flavorful and completely irresistible, but they give these them an outrageous chewy texture. Trust me, you’re cookie recipe book collection needs this addition!


To make them, start with melt bitter-sweet chocolate chips and Nutella together of in the microwave on medium power in 30 second intervals until just melted.

Baking tips: 


  • Don’t have time to chill the dough?  Drop the cookies right on to the pan and bake.  The end result will be a more crisp, flat cookie that taste just a good!

  • For an extra hit of hazelnuts, add add a half of cup of chocolate chips instead of a cup and a half cup of chopped hazelnuts to the dough.

  • The raw dough can be frozen.  Just though and bake from chilled when ever you need to.
