Ingredients
- 1 cup plus 2 teaspoons Nutella or Chocolate Hazelnut Spread or 12 oz, plus more to pipe on top of the cookies
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 5 ounces all-purpose flour about 1 cup plus 1 teaspoon
- 2 ounces granulated sugar ⅓ cup
- Wilton Bunny Paws to garnish optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine all first 5 ingredients using a wooden spoon at first and then, finish by hand. Make sure to obtain a dough that is homogeneous and slightly crumbly, yet soft enough to roll into balls. Dough should have a fudge-like consistency.
- Bake: Using a teaspoon for measurement, scoop about 2 teaspoons at a time and place into the well of a mini donut baking pan. Make sure to press the dough and mold in such a way that the hole in the center is not covered with dough. Bake for about 7- 8 minutes and let cool.
- Decorate: Invert the pan over a large baking sheet and if necessary beat with a spatula to remove them from the mold. Pipe Nutella on top of each cookie and decorate with a pair of store-bought icing bunny paws or sprinkles of your choice. Clean the donut baking pan and repeat the process.
