This was the first cookie recipe I baked when we stayed at the cabin during our vacation in California. I never used hazelnuts with chocolate chips before, and these cookies tasted so amazing and I will make them again. I think dark chocolate chips were the perfect combination with the hazelnuts. I am a huge fan of Ghirardelli chocolate and have been using this brand for many years. The cookies have a chewy texture, and are filled with dark chocolate chips and hazelnut pieces. You can substitute with any nut, but I recommend you make them with hazelnuts as they are pure decadence. If you cannot eats nuts, leave them out completely. One of the best things about baking cookies is you get to eat the first one warm. Happy baking!
