Warning: The dough is to DIE for! 🙂
I made these with my 4 year old son one afternoon. So fun and very delicious!

Nutella Kiss Cookies
(from Giada De Laurentis, www.foodnetwork.com)
Ingredients
♦ 1 3/4 cup flour
♦ 1 tsp baking soda
♦ 1/2 tsp salt
♦ 1/2 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread (I use Nutella)
♦ 1/2 cup butter, softened (1 stick)
♦ 1/2 cup sugar
♦ 1/2 cup light brown sugar
♦ 1 egg
♦ 1 tsp vanilla
♦ 1/2 cup orange sprinkles (orange sugar)
♦ 1 9-ounce package of chocolate kisses, unwrapped
Directions
1.) Preheat the oven to 375 degree F.
2.) In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3.) In another medium bowl place the chocolate-hazelnut spread, butter, sugar and brown sugar. Using a hand mixer, cream the ingredients together, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and blend until incorporated. Stir in the dry ingredients just until incorporated.
4.) Shape the cookie dough into walnut-sized balls. Roll the balls in the orange sprinkles, pressing to adhere. 
Place the cookies on a heavy cookie sheet about 4 inches apart. Bake for 7-8 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven. Quickly place a chocolate kiss in the middle of each cookie.
5.) Return the cookies to the oven and bake for another 3 minutes. Cool the cookies on a wire rack
Yield: 36-40 cookies
We LOVE Nutella, and I have been craving something with chocolate all week, so I am going to print this up and whip up a batch right now! Will let you know how they turn out. They sound and look so YUM!
Okay, we didn’t have any chocolate kisses, so we just made them without and they were still SUPER yummy! LOVE the texture. They are a hit for sure! Thanks for sharing.

yum!! I just recently found my love for nutella so I cant wait to give these a whirl!
Have you tried these with the whole wheat flour? I try not to use the white flour and wondered if anyone had tried them with the whole wheat (soft white whole wheat probably).
I actually haven’t! I’m sure you could or maybe do half and half!!
