Hazelnut Spirals
Ingredients:
1 3/4 Cups AP Flour
1/4 Tsp Baking Powder
1/8 Tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Butter, Softened
3/8 Cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Large Egg
1/8 Cup Nutella®
Stick 2 cookie sheets in the fridge.
Beat the butter and sugar together in a bowl until creamy.
Add the vanilla and the egg.
Mix in the dry ingredients to form a soft dough.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the Nutella on the dough.
Don't forget to write a secret message in the Nutella. (Sadly, it was 5 am and I wasn't all that creative when I made these.)
Roll the dough up tightly, wrap in plastic wrap/parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes or so.
Eat the remaining Nutella with either a spoon or your finger.
Cut the dough into 1/2 inch sliced. Place 1 inch apart on cookies sheets.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes.
Enjoy completely and without reason.
Book Yield: 33 cookies
My Yield: Not enough (which equals about 21 cookies)
These cookies are an epiphany in hazelnut and chocolate clothing. Definitely worth waking up for.
