Peanut Butter and Nutella Swirl Cookies - February 12, 2012

So, I'm absolutely addicted to Pinterest. I have found so many awesome recipes and craft ideas that I can't wait to try. This is one of many, MANY recipes that I'm going to be trying from Pinterest. Here is the blog the recipe came from. I believe I'll be visiting that blog again for more yummy recipes.

Peanut Butter and Nutella Swirl Cookies

Ingredients:

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

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Combine butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg, and vanilla. Mix until well blended.

Add flour, baking soda and salt. Drizzle Nutella on top of the dough then swirl it through the dough with a butter knife.

Chill dough 15 minutes in the refrigerator. Roll into balls by hand. Place on parchment lined cookie sheet. Using a fork, press down the balls to flatten slightly. Bake until edges are very lightly browned (about 7 to 10 minutes).

Allow to rest 2 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring cookies to a cooling rack.

Husband Review:

Dan liked these. He said they were a perfect crunchy little cookie to have with some milk. I enjoyed them as well, but thought they could stand being a little softer. I'll put bread in the container with the cookies next time.
