All The Textures + Flavors
We love that these hazelnut chocolate chip cookies are full of flavor and texture from the hazelnuts, shredded coconut and chocolate chips.
We love the mini chips from Enjoy Life for these and find they add the perfect little bits of cocoa to these cookies.
Baking Time
When you bake with almond butter, or really any nut butter, the baking times can vary a little from oven to oven. I’ve baked these from 10-12 minutes, noting that 10 was a little short as they fell apart when I tried to move them from the pan to a cooling rack. So, keep them on the baking sheet to cool for at least 5 minutes. They’ll continue to cook a bit.
When I tried baking some for 12 minutes, it ended up being a little long. They were great right out of the oven, but then dried out a bit and got more crumbly than I’d like. That said, for our oven 11 minutes seems to be the jackpot for these hazelnut chocolate chip cookies.
