Say hello to Chocolate Hazelnut Crinkle Cookies! These bad boys are chocolatey, chewy, crunchy, rich and everything your Christmas needs right now! Super chewy and perfect Chocolate Hazelnut Crinkle Cookies for the big fat win.
A holiday just isn’t a holiday without crinkle cookies. I know it, you know it, we all know it. They are seriously one of my all-time favorite cookie recipes, not just for the holidays. To be honest, some days, they are my favorite. I love a good tradition – you know this about me!
The crinkle in this recipe’s name comes from the obvious and distinctive crackle-top these cookies have. The “crinkle” look, like in my Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies or my Peanut Butter Chocolate Soft & Chewy Crinkle Cookies, is achieved through the transformation of sugar-coated dough balls into distinctively textured cookies. I know you love my food lessons!
These Chocolate Hazelnut Crinkle Cookies are so simple, moist and delicious. They seriously are little bits of chocolate heaven brought to your dessert trays, much like my Double Chocolate Truffle Cookies. The chocolate cookies are easily one of the cookies that disappear off the cookie tray first. Everyone goes crazy over them.
These Chocolate Hazelnut Crinkle Cookies are the perfect indulgence, especially if you’re a sweet and salty fan like I am. The salty hazelnuts paired with the sweet chocolate is seriously a dream.
Time to run to the kitchen. A little texture, flavor and everything in between all in one delicious Christmas cookie. My ultimate goal when baking these cookies was to keep them as chewy as I could without allowing them to get too cake-like and I think that goal was definitely achieved.
These snowy cookies are great for the winter holidays! Merry Christmas, my friends!
