Time 55m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/4 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and move a rack to the middle of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extract and egg in a large bowl and stir until fully combined. Form 24 balls, 1-inch in diameter, and set evenly spaced apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake until lightly browned and crisp on the edges, 15 minutes.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven, and cool for 5 minutes. Use your thumb or the back of a spoon to press into the middle of each cookie to create an indent about 1/4-inch deep. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the chocolate-hazelnut spread into each cookie indent, refrigerate until the chocolate-hazelnut filling is no longer runny, 10 to 15 minutes.
