Nutella Stuffed Peanut Butter Cookies {gf,v}
Updated: Mar 15, 2021
Peanut butter and Nutella are both two of the best spreads to exist, but combined... it's magical. These cookies are the perfect peanut butter cookie, with a nutella surprise inside. The nutella I used is my homemeade Chocolate Hazelnut Butter, which you can find in my recent blog posts. These cookies are the perfect combination of sweet, salty, gooey, and crispy. Not to mention, there are only 5 main ingredients. Of those are wholesome ingredients, such as Georgia Grinders creamy peanut butter, pure maple syrup, flaxseed meal, almond flour, and pure vanilla. It doesn't get much better than this; these cookies are delicious and easy to make! Plus, they're gluten free and vegan.
