Peanut Butter Nutella Swirl Cookies

So easy, so good. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

Preheat your oven to 350 F (180 C). You’ll need two bowls for this – about the same size as you’ll be splitting the dough.

1/3 C Butter
½ C Brown Sugar
¼ C White Sugar
½ C Peanut Butter
½ C Nutella
1 Egg
1 C Flour
1 Tsp Baking Soda

Mix your sugars together. This way, if the brown sugar has any clumps, they get broken up easily. Then, cream together the butter, sugars and egg. Once well mixed, add your flour & baking soda. When that is well mixed, separate half of it into the other bowl before adding your peanut butter to one half and the Nutella to the other bowl. Again, when well mixed, take about a ½ teaspoon-sized chunk of the peanut butter mix spooned into your palm and the same of the Nutella mix – flatten together and fold over a couple times. Roughly shape into a circle and place on the pan. They will be about 1.5” across when placed on your cookie sheet and double when baked.

Bake for 10 minutes & enjoy!
