{ Easiest Cookies EVER! }

I found a fantastic 4 ingredient peanut butter nutella cookie recipe here, decided to give it a try but alter a few of the ingredients. These cookies are perfect when you're in a time crunch and need something quick, or having last minute guests over!


Here's what you're going to need:
  • one cup of sugar
  • one cup of peanut butter (more if you like them rich)
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 2 tbsp. of nutella (more or less to your liking!)
Gather all your ingredients and mix in a mixing bowl until mixed entirely. Spray non-stick spray on a baking sheet and preheat oven to 350. Use a small cookie scoop, place on cookie sheet and press the center with a fork vertically and horizontally. Bake for 6-9 minutes. I baked mine for 6 minutes in my gas oven because we like them soft, I definitely recommend baking them about 9 minutes if you like them somewhat hard!



You really can't go wrong with these cookies!! This is a recipe I'll be keeping around for many years :) Simple, quick and the kids loved them! This is even a great recipe for the kids to help out with and not make a huge mess!

Enjoy!

  5. I have always wanted to make these cookies. I love the addition of Nutella. Since nutella already has sugar, do you find the extra cup of sugar is too much? I would think you would need to decrease the sugar a bit or they would be too sweet.

    1. Suzy, thanks for your comment! I would just suggest playing around with the ingredients to your liking! I didn't find that they were too sweet with this amount of ingredients, but someone else may disagree! Hope that helps ;)

  7. The easiest cookies ever..you couldn't have said that fast enough for me to come and check it out! I love Nutella and even though I'm not a big fan of PB I'm sure I could use almond butter instead with great results. Love the simplicity of the ingredients but the big flavor...oh...and the happy faces! thanks for sharing! Lizy
