Ingredients

How to make it

  • Stir together flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Combine Nutella and shortening in a large mixing bowl; beat with electric mixer on medium to high speed until combined. Add sugar; beat on medium speed until fluffy. Add vanilla extract and eggs; beat just until combined.
  • Alternately add flour mixture and milk to creamed mixture, beating on medium speed just until combined. Use a spoon to stir in 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts. Cover and chill for several hours or until firm.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Shape the dough into 1- or 1 1/2-inch balls. Roll the balls in finely chopped hazelnuts, then roll in confectioners' sugar. Place the balls 2 inches apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet. (The cookies will spread and crinkle as they bake.)
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until surface is cracked and cookies are set. Cool cookies on a wire rack.
  • Makes about 6 dozen.

    Thanks for posting Peeta. At the import stores out here I see Nutella all the time but really didn't know how to use it. I had thought nutella is a popular European thing.
