How to cook deliciously - White Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°. Lightly grease two baking sheets. Coarsely chop 1/2 cup hazelnuts, and set aside. Melt 2 tablespoons butter. Process the melted butter and remaining 3/4 cup hazelnuts in a food processor until the mixture forms a crumbly paste, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.

2. Stage

In a bowl, cream the remaining 7 tablespoons butter. Beat in the white sugar and brown sugar. Add the egg and vanilla, and beat for five to seven minutes, until light and fluffy. Beat in the ground hazelnut mixture until blended, stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed. Editor's Tip: Here's our primer on how to cream butter and sugar the right way. A stand mixer will take the hard work out of beating these ingredients for several minutes, but you could also use a hand mixer on slightly lower speeds, or simply your arm strength and a sturdy fork, wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Here are more expert tips for baking perfect cookies.

3. Stage

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the batter, and mix until just combined. Stir in the chips and remaining chopped hazelnuts.

4. Stage

Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the greased baking sheets, spacing the cookies two inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove the cookies to wire racks to cool.
