Happy 4th of July everybody! If you are looking for a last minute dish to bring to your party (and I mean last minute because it's already lunchtime), these cookies are to die for! I promise they will be a hit, and they're so easy to make!
This is my first time to try Nutella, and it is delicious! If you haven't tried it before, it's a hazelnut spread, similar to peanut butter, but much sweeter! Using this spread in the batter makes the cookies moist and chewy, and they stay that way for severa
l days!
Nutella Gooey Butter Cookies
1 box chocolate cake mix ( I use chocolate fudge)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup Nutella (add more if you like)
powdered sugar
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the crea
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup Nutella (add more if you like)
powdered sugar
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, cream the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add the egg. Then beat in the Nutella and vanilla extract. Mix in the cake mix.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours to firm up so that you
can roll the batter into balls.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll the chilled batter into tablespoon sized balls (I used a medium cookie scoop) and then roll them in powdered sugar. Place on an cookie sheet lined with parchment. Bake 12-14 minutes. The cookies will remain soft and gooey.
I made these last weekend for a cookout and before I remembered to take a picture of the end result they were all gone! Great excuse though to make them again this weekend when my family came to visit!
