Nutella Chocolate Cookies

When I bake cookies, I cool them on a cooling rack, later I and my family have them, but when I bake these delights, no one waits for them to cool, including me!

 These chocolaty cookies are soft from the outside and in. Of course you can make them bit crispy from the outside by baking them longer.

My sister is not fond of milk, but she have these cookies with chilled glass of milk and enjoys it like anything. I don’t blame her 😉

Reading the recipe you might reach the step where you spoon the dough and gasp! Yes, I did write one heaping teaspoon 🙂

A heaping teaspoon will result in the perfect size cookie, so don’t worry and do it, use that teaspoon.

Baking cookies is fun, so if you have kids around, let them help.
