To make these cookies, you will need the following ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1 tsp salt
– 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
– 1 cup white sugar
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 2 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup chocolate chips
– 1 cup hazelnuts, chopped
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together until they become fluffy and creamy.
4. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture into the butter mixture, stirring until just combined.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped hazelnuts into the cookie dough.
7. Once the dough is well mixed, use a spoon or cookie scoop to form small balls of dough. Place them about 1-2 inches apart on a lined baking sheet.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cookies are slightly browned on the outside but still soft and chewy on the inside.
9. Once the cookies are done, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about five minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely.
These cookies are perfect for people of all ages and are incredibly versatile when it comes to serving them. You can serve them as a snack with a glass of milk, or as a dessert after dinner. Either way, everyone is sure to love them.
A few tips to ensure the success of your cookies:
– Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before beginning to bake. Butter that is too cold or eggs that are too cold can affect the consistency of the dough.
– Don’t overmix the dough! Overmixing the dough can lead to tough, dry cookies.
– Using a cookie scoop will make it easier to form the dough balls.
– Be careful not to over-bake the cookies. They will continue to cook a little bit after they are taken out of the oven, so it’s better to err on the side of under-baking them so they remain chewy and soft.
