Ingredients:
- 2 cups sugar (you can reduce the sugar to 1 1/2 cups if you like. I have a huge sweet tooth so I like lots of sugar but some people like less)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, diced
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup Nutella
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
Directions:
Measure out 3/4 cup of Nutella in a small bowl. Set aside. In another bowl, measure out 3 cups of quick cooking oats. Set aside. Have the vanilla extract ready too.
Line a couple of baking sheets with waxed paper. You’ll scoop the cookie dough mixture onto these baking sheets.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, unsalted butter (that’s been cut up into pieces), milk and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Bring to a boil and stir frequently. Boil for 2 minutes. Make sure you boil for the full 2 minutes or your cookies will be too soft.
Then add in the Nutella, vanilla extract and quick cooking oats. Stir everything together.
Using a 1 1/2 inch cookie scoop, scoop the cookie mixture onto the wax paper. Work quickly!
Let the cookies firm up and then enjoy!
