Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 0.5 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1.25 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp beaten egg about 1 large egg
  • 0.75 cup semisweet chocolate chips optional
  • 0.5 cup chopped toasted hazelnuts optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two sheet pans with parchment.
  • Whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat butter, chocolate-hazelnut spread, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Mix in vanilla and the beaten egg until smooth.
  • Stir in dry ingredients on low just until no dry streaks remain.
  • Fold in chocolate chips and hazelnuts if using.
  • Scoop heaping tablespoon portions onto pans, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake 9–11 minutes, until edges set and centers look soft.
  • Cool 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer to a rack to finish cooling.

Notes

Try pressing a few extra chocolate chips on top right after baking, or finish with a pinch of flaky salt. For storage, keep cookies airtight at room temperature up to 4 days, or freeze portioned dough balls for fresh-baked cookies anytime.
