Servings 12
Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter softened
- 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1 tbsp strong coffee
- 2 1/4 cups AP flour
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F.
- In a stand mixer beat together the butter and sugars for about 5 minutes.
- Add eggs (one at a time), vanilla, chocolate hazelnut spread, and coffee, and mix until smooth.
- In a separate bowl sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until a dough forms.
- Add in the chocolate chips and mix.
- Scoop 4 large cookies at a time onto a parchment-lined baking sheet with at least an inch of space between each.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden brown.
Notes
- If your butter is too firm to use, you can melt it and let it re-harden until soft. Or you can grate it on a cheese grater before mixing.
- Good vanilla is always worth it!
