Best 4 Nutella Almond Cookies Recipes

NUTELLA® COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
• Cream butter and sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until white and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract; beat well. Add chocolate-hazelnut spread and mix completely. Slowly add flour and cocoa powder and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and hazelnuts.
• Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow the cookies to sit in the oven for 2 minutes more.
• Remove cookies from the oven and serve immediately or allow to cool.

NUTELLA ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to incorporate and set aside.
• In another medium bowl combine the butter, chocolate hazelnut spread, sugar, and brown sugar. Using an electric mixer, cream the ingredients together, about 4 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir in the flour mixture one-third until just combined. Add the almonds and the chocolate chips and stir until just combined.
• Using a tablespoon measure, spoon out the cookie dough onto a cookie sheet, spacing the mounds about 4 inches apart. Bake until lightly golden around the edges, about 8 to 10 minutes. Use a metal spatula to transfer the cookies to a wire rack and let cool.

ITALIAN ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Put half the almonds and half the sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Process to obtain a coarse meal. Repeat with remaining almonds and sugar.
• Put egg whites and almond extract in a medium bowl. Using a wire whisk, beat whites until soft peaks form. Add the almond-sugar mixture to the whites and use a rubber spatula to incorporate the egg whites until you obtain a doughlike consistency.
• Use a spoon or small ice cream scoop to make 24 little blobs weighing about 1/2 ounce/20 grams. Roll each between 2 palms to make smooth spheres, then flatten them slightly. Roll them in a bowl of confectioners' sugar to coat well and place 1 inch apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Use the end of a wooden spoon to make little round dents in each cookie. Fill dents with whole, unblanched almonds or Amarena cherries, if desired. Alternatively, leave cookies plain with smooth tops. Leave the tray of unbaked cookies at room temperature, uncovered, for 1 hour.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until lightly browned, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Blend together butter and sugars for a few minutes, until thoroughly combined.
• Beat eggs separately, then stream into the bowl while running the mixer on low. Continue blending and add almond extract until combined.
• Add one cup of flour to the bowl while blending, then add baking powder, then gradually add remaining flour until fully combined. Blend in almonds until distributed evenly.
• Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, place dough on ungreased cookie sheets about three inches apart to prevent cookies from bleeding together. Only bake one rack of cookies at a time to ensure even baking.
• Bake 10-12 minutes or until browned around the edges. Remove baking sheets from oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before removing to racks to cool. Remove cookies carefully, since the high butter content means they'll still be soft until they cool completely.
• Repeat baking remaining cookies, ensuring that baking sheets are only on one rack.
