Hazelnut Thumbprints - Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club

CLhb

For the holidays the Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club decided to do a cookie exchange! After I had already looked at several cookies online my new Cooking Light issue arrived in the mail and in it were these Hazelnut Thumbprints. I knew immediately I was going to try these. I mean, how could I not? There was nutella in the center! These cookies were awesome. They went to our holiday party at work and were definitely a favorite of one particular faculty member. His words were "if I can't stop eating these, then it is the best compliment you can receive - they are that good" as he ate the last cookie he stole from his spouse's plate! ;o)

Check out what the rest of our Virtual Supper Club Members created in their kitchens this month:

Jamie: Raspberry Strippers

Val: Orange Walnut Tassies

Aggie: Peppermint Patties


Helene: Maple Date Bars

Recipe for: Chocolate Hazelnut Thumbprints on myrecipes.com

Wow, that cookie looks like it wants to jump off the computer screen into my mouth. Too bad we couldn't meet in person so I could have taken these home. Look amazing and I'm sure they taste amazing too.

Just when I was about to make your eggnog thumbprint cookies, you go and post something that looks equally fantastic! I'm off to the store to buy some nutella!

Maria said...

So these get your approval? :) I am baking today and want to make the best cookies, these might have it:)

Allison said...

I, too, was eyeing this recipe. I think you've convinced me. This is going on my "to try" list. On another note, may I ask how you get such amazing photos? I'm a total klutz at food photography myself. All of your pictures make me drool.

Ya know HoneyB... I may have to be the Grumpy today. I don't like hazelnut or nutella. I know. I'm probably the only one in the world. But the photos look gorgeous!

Shelby, of all the new cookie recipes I've seen this season, these have to be THE BEST and I'm not even a chocolate lover, but I do love nutella (go figure). Absolutely positively beautiful.
