    Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies

    So, you guys are probably wondering if I cook anymore.  Truth is, I’ve had a few life changes and haven’t cooked as much as I normally do.  But now that I’m all settled and cooler weather is upon us, it’s on starting with these Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies!

    I joke that every winter, I get my extra layer of “winter fluff”.  I can’t help it; my love for comfort food takes over as the temperature drops.  Somehow, exercise has helped to keep it under control.

    Let’s hope this year is not an exception.

    I recently experimented with making homemade Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies.  My love for hazelnut spread makes my mind race thinking of ways I can integrate it into everyday foods.  I have a few more ideas… but for now, it’s cookies I’m concerned with.

    An orange stand mixer beating cookie dough in a stainless bowl.

    Of course, I start with my beloved KitchenAid mixer.  On medium speed, I mixed butter (at room temperature), Nutella Hazelnut Spread, egg (and an egg yolk), vanilla extract, light brown sugar and granulated sugar until creamy (about one minute).

    In a large bowl, I whisked together all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.  Then I slowly added it to the Nutella butter mixture in the mixer, mixing slowly until all the ingredients were incorporated.  Semi-sweet chocolate chips were added last, and I used a large spoon to stir them into the cookie dough.

    Using a cookie scoop, I placed the dough about two inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.  If you don’t have a cookie scoop, it equals out to about a tablespoon.  Flatten the dough using the back of a spoon.  I also added some extra chocolate chips on top of the dough for the “pretty factor”.  🙂

    Bake in a 325 degree preheated oven for approximately 14 minutes, or until cookies are browned around the edges.

    Cool on the baking sheet, then transfer to a cookie wire rack. Repeat with your remaining cookie dough.  Makes approximately 3 dozen cookies.
