Three times the chocolate means three times the fun!
These cookies are perfect for the chocolate lover – like me. Rich cocoa in the cookie base, chunks of dark chocolate and a pop of hazelnut-chocolate Nutella… yum! Not that soft, they are crispy and delicious. If you don’t have macadamia nuts, which are awesome, you can substitute pecans or walnuts. I would recommend you watch them closely while baking, taking care not to over-bake.
