Peanut Butter Nutella Swirl Cookies

I have a confession . . . until last week, I had never tried Nutella.
I know, right?! It’s like I have been living my life under a rock.
I just love chocolate so much and I figured why waste my time on anything else . . . until I saw this recipe. I was intrigued by the “marble” look of the cookie and thought that it sounded pretty yummy.
Holy cow . . . “yummy” is an understatement! This cookie dough is SO good that I was seriously eating it by the spoonful and the cookies were even better. They are so incredibly soft and delicious and have the perfect mix of peanut butter and Nutella.
I think that I have found a new love.
Welcome to the family, Nutella. 
Peanut Butter Nutella Swirl Cookies
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup Nutella
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat together the butter, peanut butter, and sugars using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add in the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. With mixer on low (or by hand), slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
Microwave Nutella for 20 seconds and then drizzle over the dough. Fold in Nutella with a spatula until well-distributed throughout the dough to give it that “marbled” look (this is a cook time to sample the dough and make sure that it tastes okay. You know- quality control).
Chill the dough in the fridge for 15 minutes and then roll small balls by hand. Place about an inch apart on cookie sheet and use a fork to press the balls down slightly. Bake until the edges are lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the pan for 2 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

I made these last night. The dough was amazing. I thought the cookies were better today than fresh, but maybe that was because I ate too much dough.

These Peanut Butter Nutella cookies look so delicious! So glad you girls shared them at last weekends link party @The Weekend re-Treat!
Hope to see you there again this week!
QUESTION! How much does this yield? I want to make a bunch but I’m not sure if I should just double the recipe or something.
Makes about 40 cookies. We don’t have the “Magic” button under the picture yet on this post. It’s coming. Any of our recipes that have the Magic button will give you nutritional information when you click on it. -The Six Sisters
Just so happen that I had a sandwich with the same thing on it this morning. My Mother use to buy Nutella years ago and now it’s popular. Also saw that some other company tried its hand at making it. Can’t wait to try this recipe.
Don't bother making only one batch
I made a batch for a friend’s son’s graduation party. I figured I was messing up the kitchen anyways I might as well make a double batch. Then I left 3 teenage boys in a house with warm cookies while I went to a meeting.
Best idea ever…making a double batch. Now I have enough left for the grad party.
Great texture. Great taste. Great with cold milk. With a cookie scoop one batch is probably 3 dozen. For the peanut allergy maybe try almond butter. I’ve never baked with almond butter but I may try.
Thanks!
