Nutella Fudge Cookies Food

NUTELLA® FUDGE COOKIES

Steps:

• Combine chocolate hazelnut-spread, peanut butter chips, flour, egg, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Place dough in the freezer for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges begin to firm up, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheet until the cookies are set, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

NUTELLA ROLLED COOKIES

Steps:

• In food processor (or KitchenAid Mixer with the Paddle attachment) process together the flour, baking powder, powdered sugar and butter in short pulses, until you get a flaky mixture. (I added one tsp of good vanilla too, but optional) Add the milk and continue processing using short pulses, just until the dough is formed. Heat the oven to 340°F (170° celsius). Divide the dough into 3 equal parts. Roll out each one of them (on a floured board and floured rolling pin) to a rectangle 1/2 cm (1/5 inch) thick. Spread the Nutella (if the spread is too thick, heat it up in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or more, keep an eye on it) on each one of the 3 dough parts, roll each part into a log. Place the logs (the "clean", stitchless side up) on a big baking pan with a piece of parchment paper on it. Or a pan with a light butter spray on it. Give them space apart from each roll. Using a knife, mark slots on each log, a gap of 2 cm (0.8 inch) separates between each slot. This step makes cutting the cookies after baking very easy. Just make slight indentations, don't cut into it or the Nutella will come through when baking. Bake for 25-35 mins, until golden. Make sure not to over bake. Cool for 30 mins. Powder them with powdered sugar. Using the slots we've marked, slice the cookies, they slice nicely with a sharp knife and won't fall apart. Keep in a sealed jar at room temperature.

CHOCOLATE NUTELLA FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter an 8" square pan.
• Optional step: spread walnuts out on a sheet of foil and pop into 350* oven for 5-8 minutes, until nuts are golden and fragrant. Coarsely chop nuts and set aside.
• In a 1 quart glass bowl, combine the chocolate chips, Nutella, sweetened condensed milk, and salt in a bowl.
• Microwave (HIGH) mixture for 3 minutes, taking it out halfway through and stirring well and returning it for the remaining time. I needed the whole 3 minutes.
• Carefully remove hot bowl and stir in vanilla and nuts(if desired).
• Pour mixture into prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours. It sets up almost immediately.
• After it's been chilled, score and cut fudge into bite size pieces. Enjoy!
