Ingredients
- 1 unsalted butter stick, 113 grams
- 1 cup peanut butter very well stirred, creamy natural, (270 grams
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed, 200 grams
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar 150 grams
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour bleached, 318 grams
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- 2 egg at room temperature, large
- 1 tablespoon milk any kind
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup Nutella 222 grams
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave butter in 20-second bursts until melted. Add the peanut butter and stir until well combined. Add in the sugars and whisk together. Set aside to cool until just warm.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- To the cooled butter mixture, add the eggs, milk, and vanilla and whisk very well until thoroughly combined. Add the flour mixture and stir with a sturdy spatula until combined.
- Using a large spring-loaded cookie scoop, form the dough into 3-tablespoon rounds. Roll between your palms to smooth. Using your thumb, create a well in the center. Add 1 generously heaping teaspoon of Nutella and only slightly seal it with dough. Keep a generous amount of Nutella visible. This process is a bit messy, but have fun with it! Place on baking sheet with the visible Nutella facing up. Repeat with remaining dough balls, spacing about 3 inches apart.
- Bake for about 14 minutes, or until lightly brown at the edges.
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before removing them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to two days. The longer they sit, the softer they’ll become.
Notes
- *I recommend using natural peanut butter, such as Kirkland Organic, that’s been very well stirred as it will yield a much bolder peanut butter flavor; however, conventional peanut butter (Skippy and Jif) work well too.
- **It’s important to use bleached all-purpose flour in this recipe, and measure your flour correctly. I used Gold Medal Bleached. Unbleached flour, especially with a high protein content like King Arthur flour, will cause the dough to be drier and more crumbly. If that’s all you have, reduce the amount of flour by 1-2 tablespoons.
