Author Notes
Came up with this cookie when I was getting ready to make cookies with my 9 year old for the first time. He says they are the "Best ever cookie". As for variations I would suggest adding coco powder to make it even more chocolaty, and sugar substitutes are great tasting in this as that is how I originally made it. —acquiredtaste
Ingredients
-
1 cup
Brown sugar
-
1 cup
Granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon
Baking Soda
-
1 teaspoon
Salt
-
2 cups
All Purpose Whole Wheat flour
-
1
Large Eggs
-
1 teaspoon
Vanilla Extract
-
1 cup
Butter, softened
-
1 cup
Hazelnut Chocolate (Nuetella)
-
1 cup
Light Cream Cheese
Directions
-
Have a medium sized bowl pouring in the flour, baking soda, and whisk together till combined.
-
Put the butter and sugar into a big bowl and cream together until the mix is fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula to get the sugary butter all into the middle.
-
Crack one egg at a time into the bowl and mix well before adding the next. After both eggs have made it into the mixture add in the vanilla extract, hazelnut chocolate, and cream cheese. Mix again till smooth.
-
Pour half of the flour/baking soda mix into the big bowl and mix till just incorporated (about 30 seconds tops), then add in the rest and mix until fully incorporated.
-
Pour in the chocolate chips and fold to evenly distribute through the dough. Cover bowl and set in fridge for at least 2 - 3 hours before baking.
-
Pre-heat oven to 375F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough into balls then press them down to make flat round cookies. Bake 10-12 minutes or until when you touch them they are slightly crisp on top but not super soft in the middle. Make sure to turn the pan half way through baking time to get them cooked evenly. Let cool about 5 minutes.
