Nutella Cookies

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I made you  Nutella cookies!

Ok so it would be hard to actually deliver these cookies to you – so how about you use this recipe and make some for yourself?  They are super simple.  I basically changed up a traditional peanut butter cookie recipe and subbed in Nutella. If you’re into “cookie butter” which seems to be all the rage, that would work too.

Recipe:

Yields 3 dozen cookies

1/2 cup Nutella
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups flour

Directions

In the bowl of a stand mixer or with a pastry blender, mix the butter, peanut butter and sugars until creamy. Add the egg, then vanilla. Mix baking powder with flour, then add flour a cup at a time.
Roll dough out on lightly floured surface and cut into desired shape with cookie cutter dipped into flour. Bake at 350 for 10-13 minutes. To ensure you will not have a dry cookie, check them at 8ish minutes since everyone’s oven is different.
