Some flavor combinations never go out of style, and chocolate with roasted hazelnuts is one of them. The moment these cookies came out of the oven, the melted chocolate and toasted hazelnuts made the kitchen smell incredible. It didn’t take long before everyone reached for a second cookie.

Each bite has a soft center, lightly crisp edges, rich chocolate chunks, and crunchy roasted hazelnuts. If you enjoy bakery-style cookies, don’t miss my Double Chocolate Fudge Cookies and Biscoff Butter Cookies .
