Instructions
This makes 6 Cookies Please see tips before baking. These cookies require being precise and having a little patience so you can create this magical deliciousness.
- Begin by making the nutella dallops. Scoop 1 Tbsp dallops place them on a plate with parchment paper and freeze for 30 mins to 1hr..
- Next, to make your brown butter cut butter into cubes. In a heavy saucepan heat butter over Medium heat to begin the browning process. Stir constantly until the butter begins to turn into a golden brown color. It will be foamy and that is ok. Once the butter has reached that beautiful golden brown color remove from the heat and place it on a heat safe bowl to cool.
- Once your brown butter has cooled and is still runny but on the thicker side Preheat oven to 350F and in a large bowl combine your brown butter and sugars and whisk until combined.
- Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Add your sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture and fold until just combined. Do not over mix.
- Add sprinkles and mix until combined.
- The cookies need to be baked right away they cannot be stored due to their butter/sugar ratio.
- Drop the dough balls by 1/4 cup or use a regular size ice cream scoop. Flatten the cookie dough with the palm of your hand and place a dallop of Nutella filling in the center of the flattened cookie dough.
- Wrap the dough around and over the Nutella filling like a big hug covering all the exposed Nutella.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon and split it in half since you will be dipping before and after baking so you're not cross contaminating the sugar with the raw dough.
- Roll the dough balls one by one in the cinnamon sugar covering the whole dough balls.
- Give the cookies enough space in between on a large cookie sheet baking 6 at a time.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.
- Once the cookies are ready you can fix the shape with a large round cookie cutter or a big measuring cup.(Videos on my insta for reference)
- Once the cookies are cooled enough add 1 Tbsp of sprinkles to the sugar and very carefully dip the front part of the cookies in the sprinkles sugar. .
- Allow the cookies to cool completely these are a bit softer then your regular cookies but they are amazing.
- Enjoy!
TIPS
- Cookies will look a little undone once taken out they will finish baking in the baking sheet out of the oven. Allow them to cool completely to set.
- Make sure your brown butter is cooled before you begin to make the cookie dough.
- Cookies can be stored in the refrigerator and take out desired amount 1-2 hours before enjoying!
