Hazelnut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies
Updated March 26, 2019
Hazelnut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies-soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies filled with chopped hazelnuts and sweet toffee pieces. These chocolate chip cookies are a real treat!
I found these Hazelnut Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookie photos on my computer last week and realized that I never shared the recipe. OOPS! I don't know how I forgot about these cookies because they are one of my very favorite cookies. I am a HUGE hazelnut and toffee fan, especially when they are combined in a chocolate chip cookie. It's pretty much cookie perfection.
I asked on Instagram, using the nifty new poll feature, if you guys wanted me to still share the chocolate chip cookie recipe, even though the photos are a little old, and the response was YES!!! You guys love your cookies. I am so happy we are cookie friends:) I am just sorry it took me so long to get this recipe on the blog. I think you will forgive me after you eat one cookie. They are SO worth the wait!
I am normally not a nut in my cookie kind of gal, but the hazelnuts are a game changer in these cookies. Trust me on this one! They add a nice crunch and an amazing flavor.
I also added toffee because I am always a toffee gal. Toffee is always a good idea. And of course we have to have chocolate chips because they are chocolate chip cookies. They are actually glorified chocolate chip cookies because the hazelnuts and toffee make them even better. Oh, and there is sea salt sprinkled on top because sea salt is the secret to a really good cookie. Well, I guess it's not a secret anymore because I just told you. The secret is OUT!
I really think you should bake a batch TODAY! I am going to!
