Nutella was introduced in 1965 when cocoa was in limited supply due to World War II rationing. World Nutella Day is celebrated on February 5.
I love Nutella and this hazelnut chocolate spread is a nice addition to any recipe. These cookies are deliciously crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. They are lovely dipped in coffee, tea, or milk, nicely retaining their shape.
This is an adaptation from a recipe found on the Food Network website, which was provided in courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis. Her recipe is called “Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti.” The original recipe is yummy as well, having a texture that is more crunchy and sweet.
