Nutella Peanut Butter Cookies



When you find a cookie this AMAZING, you realize it just has to be shared. 

Neighbors, friends, kids and spouses will sing your praises for days or even weeks once they bite into the perfect balance of soft and crunch of this cookie.

Of course the combination of Nutella and Peanut Butter are already a proven dynamic duo.  Our family enjoys this combination in smoothies, syrups, brownies and cakes.  Why not a cookie too?

A bigger note of importance for me, no wheat!  

I made a batch of these and within minutes they were gone, like a speeding bullet they vanished into thin air. 

Let me know in the comments below how your family enjoyed these cookies.

  6. CAUTION: Debbie downer comment to follow: I won't buy Nutella anymore....too much sugar....instead I purchase Justin's all natural hazelnut chocolate butter. It has a significant amount of protein and a fabulous texture! I <3 it! Anyways. I also have a peanut allergy. Any thoughts as to off I could use JUST this in place of the COMBO?

    1. Oops, IF! I ask bc it costs at least twice as much as Nutella! (If I remember correctly!) I haven't purchased it lately bc it has been a difficult time convincing my teenager that she shouldn't eat the sugary concoction!

  7. These are really tasty but 8 minutes wasn't adequate bake time for me. I baked the second pan at 325F convection for 12 minutes and they came out perfect. My first pan I kinda scraped off the parchment and I'm still hoping they'll dry out. :-)
