Peanut Butter Nutella Cookie Recipe
The peanut butter cookies were delicious. I made the dough a little salty so that the sweet from the Nutella would balance it nicely, and it really did. Plus, they were easy and quick to make.

Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chunky peanut butter
- 1 cup butter 2 sticks
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients: (flour, baking soda, and salt) then set aside.
- Add the butter, peanut butter, eggs, sugar, and vanilla to a mix bowl, and beat on high until creamy. Mix in the dry ingredients, a third at a time, until completely incorporated.
- Cover and move the dough to the refrigerator and chill for an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- Roll the dough into small balls (~1 inch) in the palms of your hand, and put them on a greased cookie sheet (or use a silpat!).
- Press the dough down with a fork with 2 perpendicular presses.
- Bake for 12 minutes.
- Wait at least 15 minutes until the cookies cool.
- Smear a dollop of Nutella on the bottom of a cookie, and top with a second cookie to make a sandwich.
