dark chocolate nutella no bake cookies

Yep.  I did it.


I subbed out the peanut butter for nutella in my no bake cookie recipe from last week...

Dark chocolate nutella no bakes.  Yum and yum.  :o)

I can't decide which version of the recipe I like better.  I think it's actually just a mood thing.  Peanut butter is...  well, peanut butter.  Perfect.  Nutella is heavenly.  A bit more chocolate, a bit deeper, a bit less sweet...  mmm...  both good!

If you hate coconut you can sub it out for more oatmeal, but give it a try...  it adds an amazing layer of chewiness that is so good!


Nutella No Bake Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
pinch of salt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup nutella
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut

Directions:
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt together the butter, cocoa, sugar, salt and milk.  Stir and cook until the mixture comes to a boil and then let boil for 1 minute.

Remove from the heat and stir in the nutella and vanilla until smooth, and then stir in the oats and coconut.

Scoop onto parchment-lined baking sheets.

Place in the fridge to set for a few hours and then transfer to a tupperware container if you are not going to serve them right away.  Store in the fridge!
