Nutella Cookie Cups

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 190 degrees C.
2. Lightly spray muffin pans with baking spray or use a silicone muffin pan.
3. Cream butter in a mixing bowl, gradually add both sugars and continue creaming until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in eggs and vanilla and mix thoroughly.
5. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, salt, and baking soda with a wire whisk until combined.
6. Slowly add the wet ingredients until just combined.
7. Roll dough into balls 1.5 inches thick.
8. Place them in the muffin pan (do not squish down yet!) and bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown but not too dark around the edges.
9. Remove from the oven and use a shot glass or similar object to press your baked cookies down as soon as they come out of the oven.
10. It creates a perfect hole for your Nutella to melt in!
11. Add 1 tbsp Nutella to each cup – it will start to melt quickly so you can swirl it around and make it nice and smooth.
12. Let cool for 15-20 minutes in the pan, and serve.
13. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or freeze for a convenient treat.
