Why we love White Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies Recipe
One of my favorite memories as a kid is making cookies with my mom because she would let me help her as she worked. She explained the process of measuring–why it was important to be precise in measuring, etc. However the BEST part was licking the beaters!
I knew that if I helped her bake cookies–I had first dibs on the beaters! I was a pretty smart little kid. 🙂

Helpful baking tips for higher elevations
- If you live 3,000 feet above sea level or more it is considered high elevation and may take longer to cook/bake.
- Adjustments are needed for 5000+ feet and above:
- Reduce baking powder: for each teaspoon, decrease 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon.
- Reduce sugar: for each cup, decrease 2 tablespoons.
- Increase liquid: for each cup, add 2 to 4 tablespoons.
- Increase oven temperature by 25 degrees F.
- Check if it is done a little early.
- This takes some trial and error to get it right for you.

Hi Ruthie ..thanks for the recipe.do I use all purpose flour or self raising flour ? Thanks.
Hi Feba… this recipe uses all purpose flour. We hope you enjoy these delightful cookies! xoxo~ Ruthie
These turned out amazing!!! Thank you for this recipe. I love hazelnuts. We frozen half the uncooked dough because there are only 2 of us.
That is such a good idea!! Thank you for sharing and we are so glad that you loved these cookies. 🙂
Hey There Ruthie!
Did you mean 1 1/12 cups brown sugar or was it supposed to be 11/2? I am in the middle of making them now so I will go with 11/4 to be safely in the middle somewhere:) They look and sound fantastic-I will be adding a handful of dates and some coconut also and will let you know how they turn out. I am not a person who measures exact but I will do my best! Thanks again~Samantha
Hi Samantha… yes, it is 1 1/2 cups, sorry for the typo- thank you for letting me know. Your cookies sound wonderful! I hope you enjoyed them 🙂 xoxo~ Ruthie
