Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Last updated on January 18, 2022 By Anna 4 Comments This post may contain affiliate links.

Hazelnut season runs from August through late October, so I made these Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies in the nick of time! While I could have just as easily used pecans or walnuts, the hazelnuts, also known as filberts, add an interesting flavor to these deep, dark, double chocolate cookies. Open to improvisation, they are perfect for serving on a cold day with hot cocoa.

As their name implies, the cookies are packed with oats and nuts. They are about medium thickness with a texture that's slightly chewy.

Removing the skin from hazelnuts can be a drag, but there are some tips I’ve found over the years that make the job easier.

How to Remove Skin From Hazelnuts

For every ½ cup of nuts, bring 1 ½ cups of water to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of baking soda for every 1 ½ cups water and boil for 3 minutes. Drain the nuts in a mesh colander. To remove skins, grab a paper towel and rub the nuts against the sides of the strainer, then rinse off the nuts, empty them into a rimmed baking dish and toast at 350 for 10 minutes.

Ingredients
 

  • 2 sticks 230 grams unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup 200 grams granulated sugar
  • 1 cup 200 grams packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups 260 grams all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup 70 grams unsweetened cocoa powder, natural
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups 160 grams quick cooking oats
  • 1 ½ cups dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup roasted hazelnuts coarsely chopped
  • 2 cups quick cooking oats

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Have ready a couple of parchment lined baking sheets.
  • With an electric mixer, beat butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy; blend in eggs and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl thoroughly whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, mixing well.
  • Stir in oats, nuts and chocolate chips, then drop by tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake 11 to 12 minutes or until set.
  • Let the cookies cool for about 1 minute on baking sheets, then remove from baking sheet and let cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

These cookies taste best when they are completely cool. The dough doesn't require chilling, but I do it anyway. I scoop the dough into balls, set the shaped balls on a plate, chill them until firm, then put the dough balls in a zipper bag and keep them refrigerated or frozen until I'm ready to bake.

    I love hazelnuts and chocolate together. I need to get my hands on some hazelnuts and make these!
    Camille, I'm envious of your access to good, cheap, plentiful hazelnuts!

    These look awesome!
    I recently discovered that Oregon (where I live) produces 99% of the hazelnuts in the country! Guess what my new favorite, cheap ingredient is!? 🙂
