These simple Peanut Butter Cookies with Nutella Filling will make you look fancy and sophisticated!!
Ingredients
2½ cups flour
1½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup butter
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar packed
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
For the creamy nutella filling:
8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
⅓ cup nutella
1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
In a mixer bowl, beat butter for 30 seconds. Add peanut butter and sugar; beat until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well.
Add dry ingredients to beaten mixture; beat until well blended. Shape dough into 1 inch balls; roll in granulated sugar, if desired.
Place on a cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Criss cross with the tines of a fork. Bake @ 375 for 8-10 minutes. Cool for about 1 minute and then place on a cooling rack.
Make the creamy nutella filling by mixing all the ingredients together, I often just throw them all in the blender! Chill for 20 minutes or so before spreading.
