Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Creamy peanut butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 110 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 1 count Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 140 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Fine sea salt
- 180 grams Nutella
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a handheld or stand mixer until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, mixing just until combined.
Step 4
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
Step 5
Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a cohesive dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball.
Step 7
Gently press each ball down with a fork in a crisscross pattern to flatten slightly.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set. The centers may still look slightly soft; they will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous amount of Nutella on the flat side of one cookie, then sandwich it with another cookie, flat sides facing inward. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
Step 11
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
