Peanut Butter Nutella Cookies

While I was still at home, I made these for my mom to take to work. I didn't try any but apparently they were a big hit! The nutella was hard to mix in, though. I think I added more than the recipe called for, and some cookies got more nutella than others. The nutella also made it hard to do the criss-cross fork pattern...but other than that they were pretty easy to make!



Peanut Butter Nutella Cookies
Recipe from Delightful Bitefuls
Found on Lovin' in the Oven

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Approx. 1/4 cup Nutella

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Cream together butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg, and vanilla. Gradually add the flour, baking soda and salt. Drizzle Nutella on top of the dough then swirl it through the dough with a butter knife.

Refrigerate the dough for 15 minutes. Roll the dough into tablespoon sized balls and use a fork to gently flatten the balls and create a criss-cross pattern. P

Bake for 7-10 minutes.
