Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Add the granulated sugar and salt and continue beating until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. (2 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Blend in the melted dark chocolate, cocoa powder, and instant espresso powder until fully incorporated. (2 minutes)

06

Step
3 mins

Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour until just combined; be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, coarsely chopped hazelnuts, and finely ground hazelnuts. (2 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

Drop heaping tablespoons of cookie dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. (5 minutes)

09

Step
3 mins

Use the back of a wet fork to flatten each cookie slightly, creating a crisscross pattern on top. (3 minutes)

10

Step
15 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are set and the edges begin to darken, approximately 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

11

Step
5 mins

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider using Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
Toasting the hazelnuts yourself will yield the best flavor. Simply bake them at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until fragrant, then rub off the skins.
The wet fork trick prevents the cookies from puffing up too much and helps them bake evenly.
These cookies are best enjoyed within 3-4 days of baking. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
