Ferrero Rocher Cookies

Directions

• cookies:
• start by freezing your nutella, so place 6 tablespoon sized dollops of nutella onto a tray. put this tray in your freezer whiles you make the cookie dough
• to make the cookie dough, add the butter into a pot and place this over medium-low heat
• keep heating this, whiles stirring at the same time, until the butter becomes a light brown colour. take this off the heat and leave it too cool for 5 minutes
• once the butter has cooled, pour it into a large bowl and whisk in both sugars and the vanilla. then mix in the egg
• in a separate smaller bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda
• add this flour mixture into the large bowl and mix until a dough forms and no flour is visible
• to make the cookie dough balls, get 90g of the dough, flatten it out then add a piece of the frozen nutella on top. then roll the dough into a ball making sure no nutella is showing through
• do this until you've used all the dough, then add the dough balls onto a tray and leave them in the fridge for 30 minutes
• at this point pre-heat your oven to 190c/375f
• once the dough balls have chilled, add them onto a large baking paper lined tray, making sure to leave a gap between each one
• bake for around 20 minutes then leave them to cool completely
• chocolate topping:
• melt the chocolate then mix in the chopped hazelnuts
• add about a tablespoon of this onto each cookie and spread it out, i just did this with a spoon
• leave these for a bit so the chocolate can set and then that's it, you're done!
