Dark Chocolate Chunk Crinkles with Hazelnuts

Sorry I haven't posted.

The past couple of days have been busy, busy, busy.

No time to stop.

While I did not cook dinner last night, I did have time to make a batch of cookies.

Yes they are chocolate
...and yes there are hazelnuts,
but no they are not Nutella.

These cookies are like fudgey brownies but in cookie form and extremely thinner:)

The addition of hazelnuts add a crunch factor, the chocolate chunks add a gooey center, and the dark chocolate makes these cookies perfectly rich.

You Will Need:

1 cup Dark Chocolate, Chopped (or dark chocolate chips)

1 Stick of Butter

1/3 cup Flour

1/4 cup Cocoa Powder

1 tsp Baking Powder

1/4 tsp Salt

2 large Eggs

2/3 cup Sugar

1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks

1 cup Chopped Hazelnuts

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Melt butter and dark chocolate in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time, stirring each time.

Let it cool.

Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, set aside.

Cream together sugar and both eggs until thick and pale yellow.

Add dry ingredients and mix until incorporated.

Then add chocolate chunks and hazelnuts.

(You can use any type of nuts. almonds would be delicious. Oooh Oooh and then add some coconut and it almost like almond joys! I will have to try this next time! you can add walnuts instead, pecans, whatever your preference.)

Drop tablespoons of batter onto a lined cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 mins, until cracked onto and just set. (They will look a little raw but don't worry, they aren't)

Transfer to a wire rack and let cool 5 mins. Or eat right away, at your own risk:)

And there you have it folks!

Chocolatey goodness!

Enjoy!
