The method includes: forming a lower electrode layer above a substrate; forming a variable resistance layer on the lower electrode layer; forming an upper electrode layer on the variable resistance layer; forming a hard mask layer on the upper electrode layer; forming a photoresist mask on the hard mask layer; forming a hard mask by performing etching on the hard mask layer using the photoresist mask; and forming a nonvolatile memory element by performing etching on the upper electrode layer, the variable resistance layer, and the lower electrode layer, using the hard mask. In the forming of a photoresist mask, the photoresist mask is formed to have corner portions which recede toward the center portion in planar view.
