INSTRUCTIONS
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Pulse the hazelnuts in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add both sugars, the baking powder, and salt and pulse until the nuts are finely ground. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, scraping the bowl occasionally. Add the egg and vanilla and pulse until thoroughly incorporated. Add the chocolate chips and pulse until evenly distributed; It’s OK if a few get chopped in the process.
Using a 1¼-inch (1½-teaspoon) cookie scoop or a teaspoon measure, drop the dough by rounded teaspoons onto one of the prepared sheets, spacing them 1 inch apart.
Bake until the cookies are golden brown, 9 to 10 minutes. While the first batch bakes, drop the remaining dough on the second sheet, then bake after the first sheet comes out.
If the cookies don’t spread during baking, as soon as they come out of the oven, gently press the tops flat with the bottom of a glass. Cool completely on the sheet on a wire rack.
