A couple of years ago I signed up for a cookie swap hosted by Julie from White Lights on Wednesday. I was SO excited to try out a cookie recipe from a fellow blogger. I received a delicious cookie recipe from Shary from Atta Mama. I’ll admit, I was a little worried when I received a recipe for Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies. I had never had Nutella before. Gasp. I know. Blasphemy in the food blogger world, right?

When I opened the first jar of Nutella that I had EVER opened, I had to have a taste. BOOM. Instant Nutella lover.

Nutella. Is. AWESOME!

These cookies are awesome, too. I couldn’t keep my hands off of them. Dangerous cookies. So I took some to work. They were a hit there, too.  Seriously, they were DEVOURED before the end of the day.

I made a couple of changes to the original recipe. I used white chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chips and I reduced the amount of cinnamon in the recipe from 1 tsp to 1/4 tsp. I hope you enjoy the recipe!

  1. I feel like I had Nutella once, in high school. It's definitely time for me to try it again. These look great :)

  2. Oh yum! I told you you would love Nutella. ;) I may have to add these to my holiday cookie baking list.

  3. Looks good and great pictures!!!

  4. Miam, miam as we say in French! I try not to buy Nutella because I eat this so much. Last time, I went to Galerie Lafayette, a famous French department store, I saw that they were selling the Christmas Five kilo jar ( 5 kg is about 9 or 10 pounds!)… But this time, I resisted, I didn't buy it! Lol
    I saw that you're in WordPress now so I subscribe via email to your blog!
    Cheers

  5. How have you lived without trying Nuetella? Oh man, these cookies look delicious!

  6. How you've gone this long without Nutella in your life is beyond me. I'm glad I pushed you to try it out! Now your life is complete :) I use white chocolate chips sometimes too, but I feel like in a recipe swap you should send the original so the chef can tweak it to his or her needs.)

  7. Julie welcome to the world of Nutella… there is no turning back and by how delicious your cookies look you won't want to. Thanks for sharing them on foodie friday.
