These easy cookies can be made in a pinch.  The mix of hazelnut and chocolate flavors comes together in a biscuit-like cookie.  Here’s the recipe:

What you will need:

 1 metal baking sheet

1 cutting board

1 food processor

2 whole eggs

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

½ cup chocolate chips

1 cup nutella spread

2 sheets parchment paper

Pinch of salt

Cooking & Directions:

Preheat oven at 350 degrees.  Combine all ingredients (besides chocolate chips) in food processor.  Pulse for 2 -3 minutes until well mixed.  Place dough on cutting board and continue to knead for another 3 minutes.  Next, portion out dough into small round balls of dough that measure roughly ½ inch to 1 inch in diameter.  Cover and line metal baking sheet with parchment paper.  Position 6 dough balls on parchment paper and press down in middle.  These will become the cookies.  Sprinkle chocolate chips on cookies.  Bake cookies in oven for 12 to 15 minutes.  Remove from oven.  Let cool before eating.
