How to Make Hazelnut Crinkles
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Toast hazelnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate hazelnut spread and chopped hazelnuts.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 2 hours (or up to overnight).
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls.
- Roll each ball in powdered sugar until completely coated.
- Place the coated balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
