Nutella Chocolate Chunk Cookies

by

Sometimes a little chocolate goes a long way!  This weekend it was way too cold to venture outdoors and my children were looking for something fun to do.  When wind chills are below zero I do not let them play outside, no matter how bundled up they are, so we had to make the best of the day being snowed in.  While my children kept themselves busy creating interesting things with their LEGOS, I decided to bake a few dozen of these tasty Nutella Chocolate Chunk Cookies!  These crisp on the outside and slightly chewy on the inside cookies are a wonderful blend of Nutella and semi sweet chocolate chunks.  They are simple to make and are a wonderful surprise with a cup of hot chocolate on a cold, snowy day!  One by one, my children all managed to mosey on into the kitchen as the first batch of these were coming out of the oven and offered to test them out for the blog.  How sweet! 🙂  After cooling off a few minutes, my ever so willing children got to “test out” and enjoy these freshly baked cookies.  Chocolate covered smiles and laughter filled my home on Saturday afternoon and it was so nice spend a quiet, cozy day inside with my loves.  If you have Nutella lovers at home, bake a few dozen of these cookies and create your own memories the next time you and your family are snowed in!

    What a way to brighten a snowed in day! These cookies look thick and chewy just the way I like them, and the addition of Nutella just sounds incredible. Pinning!
