Ingredients

1 pound bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 ounces unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tablespoon baking powder
1 pound white chocolate, roughly chopped
1/2 pound whole skinned hazelnuts, see Cook's Note*

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

In a double boiler over simmering water, melt the bittersweet chocolate and butter stirring constantly. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Combine the chocolate, flour, and egg mixtures together. Stir in the white chocolate and hazelnuts.

Rest the dough in the refrigerator until it begins to set up but is still soft enough to spoon out.

Using 2 spoons, drop 1 tablespoon portions of dough 2 inches apart on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Bake for 12 minutes. Cool on the sheet pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

*Cook's Note: Although any nut can be used, we found that hazelnuts and macadamia nuts tasted the best in the recipe.

how to fix these cookies
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

So I used the ingrediants and the messurements that they told me, but one of the baches came out really runny. So I put 2... cups of flour instead of only 1/2 cup. They turned out great and fluffy and chewy. So to all of you that think the same, just add 2 cups of flour and they will turn out great! It will be hard to stir in, but eventually it will get mixed together just fine. EnjoyRead more

Yummy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I actually really love these cookies. I had no problem making them, I just melt the chocolate and put everything else even... the butter into the stand mixer, when the chocolate is ready I keep the mixer on low and add slowly. The dough comes out a bit better and keeps its shape with out chilling. Plus you can add whatever you want in place of the nuts and white chocolate. I made them for Christmas, but instead of nuts and chocolate I added peppermint pieces (you can find in the baking/seasonal section of your food market) and milk chocolate chips, our guests went crazy for them.Read more

Excellent with some tweaking
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Love this cookie recipe. Needed some tweaking though hence the 4 stars: I used half an 11 oz bag of macadamia crushed nuts.... I used the amount the recipe called for in my first batch but it was too much. There wasn't enough of the chocolate batter coming through. If you prefer even more chocolate batter to come through you can cut the amount of white chocolate too. I did not have trouble baking them for 12 minutes as others have posted. The key is to leave them cooling on the tray for 10 minutes and then remove them (on the wax paper) to the counter. Remove them from the wax paper after another 10 mins. Enjoy!Read more

tasty, but not perfect
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

after making this cookie I read the reviews. and yes it took much longer than 12 min., close to 19. I treated it like cake... cookies. mixing went well for me because I used a mixer, just my hand mixer. I used dark chocolate to add an adult taste, but instead of nuts I added dried cranberries. plus I added more vanilla than was called for. I still feel like it needs something else, next time I will use a spice to add a kick.Read more

Having Technical Difficulties
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I've tried this receipe 3 times and the cookies never come out right. The batter's always runny and cookies are flat. I've... tried regrigerating the batter for 30 mins to 3 hours, made no difference. I've baked for 10 min to 18 min, still no difference, except slightly burnt. I've never had this many problems with any recipe. The cookie tastes excellent but it doesn't really come out like a cookie. On to the next recipe.Read more
