Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar and eggs together until pale and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the Nutella and vanilla extract to the egg mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Fold in the chopped hazelnuts and chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a long, rectangular log about 2 inches wide and ¾ inch high. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the logs are firm to the touch and starting to crack slightly.
Remove the logs from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 150°C (300°F).
Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the logs diagonally into ½-inch thick pieces.
Place the biscotti slices back onto the baking sheet, cut side up. Bake for an additional 10-12 minutes on each side, until the biscotti are crisp and dry.
Let the biscotti cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
