Photo: Chocolate-Hazelnut Drop Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup plus 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, at room temperature (recommended: Nutella)
Directions
For the cookies: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners. Set aside.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. With the machine running, gradually add the flour until incorporated. Beat in the chocolate-hazelnut spread. Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop 12 balls of dough onto each baking sheet. Bake until the bottoms of the cookies flatten out slightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Place 1 cup of powdered sugar in a medium bowl. In batches, roll the cookies in the sugar until coated. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

These are delicious, the texture is light and delicate. Not too sweet, just right. I'll be making these again.

One of the most delicious cookies!! I truly don't understand the bad reviews. People who can't bake should not writer reviews and please don't right a review if you alter the recipe. I made these exactly as the recipe stated and was very happy with the results. Will make these again and again!!

Yuck. This recipe was quick & easy and I had such high hopes that the Nutella would ensure a tasty treat but they were just blah tasting with a strange sandy texture. I followed the recipe exactly (well, except for adding chocolate chips, baked for 11 minutes & had no trouble with flat cookies -- they looked great, just didn't taste great. I will not make these again.
