Oatmeal Chocolate Hazelnut Chunk Cookies – Recipe!

Cookies are something I have baked since I was a kid.  I remember being very young and taking out the Toll House Chocolate Chips and following the recipe straight off the back of the bag.  The cookies were always good, and my friends and family appreciated the effort.  Since then, I have experimented with hundreds of cookie recipes, and this one for Oatmeal Chocolate Hazelnut Chunk Cookies is one of my favorites.

These oatmeal cookies are not your classic recipe baked with raisins and nuts, but a combination of dark and milk chocolate with hazelnuts.  I used Ritter Sport Bars in this recipe because they are relatively easy to find and the chocolate is from Belgium.  The chocolaty nutty taste, along with the oatmeal based dough creates a cookie that is chewy to bite into, and with a decent crunch.

I love to pack these up for road trips or fun excursions at the beach because they are hearty enough to with stand the ride.  Also, they make great treats at birthday parties or sporting events – bake a batch and see.
