Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies – Recipe & Preparation

Chocolate hazelnut cookies are a delicious and popular treat enjoyed in many parts of the world. They are easy to prepare, require simple ingredients, and add a special touch to gatherings with their rich taste and delightful aroma.

Beyond their flavor, these cookies are quite nutritious thanks to their main ingredients—hazelnuts and chocolate. They provide plenty of energy due to their calorie content and offer several health benefits. Hazelnuts and chocolate are rich in antioxidants that help protect the heart, reduce the risk of clots, and improve blood circulation. They also provide essential vitamins and minerals such as iron, potassium, calcium, manganese, and zinc, all of which support overall health.

Additionally, these cookies are beneficial for people with anemia, may help relieve joint pain, prevent dental decay, and contribute to stronger bones and immunity.

Ingredients (Serves 10):

Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies

 

  • ½ cup melted butter

  • 1 ½ cups sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

  • 2 ¼ cups flour

  • ¾ cup cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup hazelnuts

  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Preparation Method:

  1. Melt the butter, then beat it with the sugar in a bowl until well blended. Add the eggs and vanilla, whisking until the mixture becomes smooth and combined.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. Combine the dry mixture with the wet mixture, then fold in the chocolate chips and hazelnuts. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours.

  5. Once chilled, shape the dough into medium-sized balls and place them on a greased baking tray to prevent sticking.

  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes.

  7. Allow to cool slightly, then serve and enjoy with family or guests.

Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, with the perfect mix of chocolate and hazelnuts—these cookies are a true crowd-pleaser.
