Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F. Stir together flour, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Beat Nutella and shortening in a large bowl until combined. Add sugar and mix until combined, beat in eggs and vanilla. Add flour and milk alternately and mix until just combined. Stir in 1/2 cup toasted hazelnuts. Cover and chill several hours until firm.
Shape into walnut-sized balls. Roll in finely chopped hazelnuts, then in confectioners sugar. Place on greased cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes (surface should be cracked and cookies set). Makes about 70.

This is from recipegoldmine.com. I was looking for Nutella recipes and no one has posted this one. I made a variation of this with walnuts instead of hazelnuts and didn't roll in nuts just the confecioners sugar. They turned out great but I did find I had to bake them about 15 minutes to get the middle done and to crackle on top. I didn't count my cookies so maybe I made them too big. I think you could make them with any nuts you have on hand, the Nutella flavour is still there.
UPDATE.. I made them with hazelnuts but I didn't notice any difference in taste than when I made them with walnuts. Walnuts I get free and hazelnuts are so expensive to buy.
