Servings: 60 cookies
Calories: 117kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1½ cup brown sugar packed
- 2 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ¾ tsp baking soda
- ¾ tsp baking powder
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- ⅓ tsp salt
- 6 oz dark chocolate baking bar chopped finely
- ½ cup espresso chips
- 1 cup hazelnuts toasted & chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Place chopped hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast about 9-11 minutes, until the hazelnuts start to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool. Increase oven temperature to 350°F and line baking pan with parchment paper.
- Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together. Once smooth, beat in eggs and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl sift flour, baking soda, baking powered, and salt together. Mix dry ingredients into wet until well combined. Add hazelnuts, chocolate, and espresso chips.
- Drop cookie dough onto prepared baking sheet (I like using a small ice cream scoop for uniform cookies) and bake about 12-14 minutes, or until the edges of the cookie have browned. Let cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
