World Nutella Day!

In case you didn't know, today is World Nutella Day! I first learned about nutella during my time abroad in college, and the chocolate hazelnut spread has continued to bring delicious goodness to my life here in California. So, in honor of today...below is my favorite nutella cookie recipe!

Ingredients

1 3/4 c all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 c nutella

1/2 c butter

1/2 c sugar

1/2 c brown sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

In medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt.

In another medium bowl, cream together nutella, butter and both sugars using a hand mixer.

Add the eggs and vanilla.

Stir in the dry ingredients until incorporated.

Shape the dough into small (1 inch) balls and place onto a baking sheet.

Bake for 8-10 minutes

Note: These are super easy to burn, and will be very soft right out of the oven! Don't worry that they're too soft, because they will harden as they cool.
